The Red-vented Bulbul (Pycnonotus cafer) is a resident breeder across the Indian Subcontinent, including Sri Lanka extending east to Burma and parts of Tibet. It has been introduced in many other parts of the world and has established itself in the wild on several Pacific islands.
The Red-vented Bulbul is the commonest and most widespread bulbul. It prefers open scrub, parks, gardens, open deciduous forest, secondary jungle for habitat. It is easily identified by its short crest giving the head a squarish appearance. The body is dark brown with a scaly pattern while the head is darker or black. The rump is white while the vent is red. The black tail is tipped in white. Sexes are similar in plumage, but young birds are duller than adults.
Red-vented bulbuls feed mainly on fruits, petals of flowers, nectar, insects and occasionally geckos. Their vocalizations are usually stereotyped and they call throughout the year. However a number of distinct call types have been identified including roosting, begging, greeting, flight and two kinds of alarm calls.They are important dispersers of seed of plants such as Carissa spinarum.
The Red-vented Bulbul was among the first animals other than humans that was found to be incapable of synthesizing vitamin C. In 19th Century India these birds were frequently kept as cage pets and for fighting especially in the Carnatic region. They would be held on the finger with a thread attached and when they fought they would seize the red feathers of the opponents.
