Title: Plain Prinia without tail?
Post by Lynx on Oct 16th, 2005, 1:44pm
This strange bird was spotted at Long Valley on 15 Oct 2005.  Is it a plain prinia without tail, or an entirely different species?

Thanks Mike ;)

Would you please advise if there is any special reason for the disappeared tail?  Or is it just a regular seasonal change?
