Size similar to a bulbul and tail is not pointed: it is not an munia. I can't decide what it is, based on this photo.

Is it a possible a Hawfinch????? Author: thinfor Time: 8/01/2009 23:40
Thanks for the comments...the posts are not farther apart so munia cannot be that big! Author: kmatthew Time: 9/01/2009 01:26
The structure of this bird just look like a Bulbul to me...But I can't work out which way it's head is facing!! Also, is the pointy bit towards the right of the bird it's beak??Author: ajohn Time: 9/01/2009 09:07
The body and tail looks like Chinese Bulbul, but like others I'm struggling to work out what position the head is in (maybe preening the back?). It looks to have a heavy finch-like bill, but I think that is an optical illusion Author: hpippen Time: 9/01/2009 09:07
I think that was also a Red-whiskered Bulbul too. He was scratching his back with his beak, so his crest look like his new beak in the photo.Author: james4j Time: 9/01/2009 22:06
Thank you all of you very much for helping to i.d. the bird.
