This "San Hu" a.k.a. "Poksay" got me worried as its reserved for a friend. Suppose to be the hardest working one in the seller's place but was a little too quiet for comfort
Few days ago, his form came back whew! what a relief. hahahaha
Pretty camera shy though. So, it is difficult to get a good shot

Same bird different tune
Wonder whether it is just a sub-song. The other one is louder and can fan out his tail while calling like a Hwa Mei.

hi all,

actually laughing thrushes are not actually thrushes, they are actually babblers, the magpie robins (murai) are real thrushes, i have no idea why the laughing thrush is getting the name of a thrush at the first place.

Thanks dance4rain for sharing the videos, the birds will looks always better.

Watched the video and enjoyed the song of the san wu but somehow wished that its repertoire would include more notes. Perhaps it has by now. Maybe dance4rain could come up with another video of a much improved performance of his san wu. Hopefully

cheers
