Dear RICHARD,

SWANS are not necessarily white, and
all DRONGOS not necessarily black.

Thanks for showing us this exotic
glossy (in India termed 'Spangled')
EMERALD Drongo species.

With ruff-like gelly feathers (mane?)
around the face, a crest of at least
one spectacular 'hair'

+ a Curved vintage-car tail-design!

PS
Drongos may be aggressive and mimic
calls of other birds. This Asian
species stands out with straight
'hairs' :

WHY is it termed HOTTENTOTTUS?
