A Tawny Bellied babbler foraging in the bush

A small babbler, distinctive looking, found in areas with lots of scrubs. This is a common bird that we often sight in a variety of places, around the bushes adjacent to waterbodies and forests / thick wooded areas. This is a small bird, around a man's palm. They are quite agile and keep moving all the time. The picture shows their natural habitat - which is deep underbush and shrubs. They keep hopping from branch to branch usually less than a 1-2 feet from the ground.

 

I sighted 3 of them on the steps leading a thick wooded area. The day was bright already and they came to edge of the bush where I shot this picture. They quickly disappeared into the dark undergrowth behind them where we couldn't follow them.
