The Red-vented Bulbul (Pycnonotus cafer) is a member of the bulbul family of passerines. It is 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 including Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, and Hawaii.
The Red-vented Bulbul 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. The Himalayan races have a more prominent crest and are more streaked on the underside. The Race intermedius of the Western Himalayas has a black hood extending to the mid-breast. Population bengalensis of Central and Eastern Himalayas and the Gangetic plain has a dark hood, lacks the scale like pattern on the underside and instead has dark streaks on the paler lower belly. Race stanfordi of the South Assam hills is similar to intermedius. The desert race humayuni has a paler brown mantle. The nominate race cafer is found in Peninsular India. Northeast Indian race wetmorei is between cafer, humayuni and bengalensis. about 20 cm in length, with a long tail.

This is my modest pie bird/vent collection. I don't actually use them for my baked goodies. They are displayed in my bathroom, mostly in my cabinet. My fave is the bluish bird with black wings next to the seal. Sarah McLachlan's rendition of "Black Bird" is on my mind right now.
Half Moon Bay Pelagic, CA. This pelagic bird nest down in Mexico and shows up in Northern CA in late Autumn.
Al vent,
la cara al vent,
el cor al vent,
les mans al vent,
al vent del món.
I tots,
tots plens de nit,
buscant la llum,
buscant la pau,
buscant a déu,
al vent del món.
La vida ens dóna penes,
ja el nèixer és un gran plor:
la vida pot ser eixe plor;
però nosaltres
al vent,
la cara al vent,
el cor al vent,
les mans al vent,
al vent del mon.
I tots,
tots plens de nit,
buscant la llum,
buscant la pau,
buscant a déu,
al vent del món.

Guardando questa foto pensavo che le cose piu' leggere sono spesso quelle in balia del vento. I fiori, per esempio. O le farfalle.
Spesso, ma non sempre.

The red-vented bulbul (Pycnonotus cafer) is a member of the bulbul family of passerines. It 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 including Fiji, Samoa, Tonga and Hawaii. It has also established itself in parts of the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, the United States and Argentina.[2] It is included in the list of the world's 100 worst invasive alien species.[3]
In 1760 the French zoologist Mathurin Jacques Brisson included a description of the red-vented bulbul in his Ornithologie based on a specimen that he mistakenly believed had been collected from the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa. He used the French name Le merle hupé du Cap de Bonne Espérance and the Latin Merula Cristata Capitis Bonae Spei.[4] Although Brisson coined Latin names, these do not conform to the binomial system and are not recognised by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature.[5] When in 1766 the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus updated his Systema Naturae for the twelfth edition, he added 240 species that had been previously described by Brisson.[5] One of these was the red-vented bulbul. Linnaeus included a brief description, coined the binomial name Turdus cafer and cited Brisson's work.[6] The red-vented bulbul does not occur in Africa. The type location was later changed to Sri Lanka[7] and then in 1952 designated as Pondicherry in India by the German naturalist Erwin Stresemann.[8][9] The specific epithet cafer is New Latin for South Africa.[10] This species is now placed in the genus Pycnonotus that was introduced by the German zoologist Friedrich Boie in 1826.[11][12]
Two formerly designated races, P. c. nigropileus in southern Burma and P. c. burmanicus of northern Burma, are now considered as hybrids.[13][14][15]
