An unusually long spell of rain and the resultant cold weather have delighted birdwatchers in the city with sightings of rare migrant winged visitors in big numbers.
“For the very first time, we recorded the Brown-breasted Flycatcher in end-November in Tiruchi. This small sparrow-like bird travels from the Himalayas and usually spends the winter in Western Ghats, never in the plains. This year, this ‘vagrant’ was spotted in our city,” A. Relton, academic and a birder for over 45 years, told The Hindu.
