Birdwatching in Thailand: Shama Thrush (White-rumped shama)
A nice bird that is common in Thailand is the Shama Thrush (White-rumped shama). The above photo of the shama thrush was taken in the forests of Mae Rim.
The shama thrush (Copsychus malabaricus) is a small passerine bird that was formerly classified as a thrush (Turdidae), but is now classified as a flycatcher (Muscicapidae).
The shama thrush is 27 cm long. The male is glossy black with a maroon belly and white rump and also white lower tail feathers. The female is more grey-brown and she is also smaller than the male. Both sexes have a black bill and pink legs. Immature birds are speckled and resemble the female.
The bird has a soothing song as you can hear in the video below.
Do you have nice pictures of birds in Thailand? Send them to the editors with a story about the type and where you took the photo (note: we only post self-made photos). Send to [email protected]
When is it actually breeding time in Thailand?
From the beginning of May to even the end of August I see them making nests in our trees and shrubs and under the roof.
Around June/July I see the most young in those nests or you will also find them among the nests that have fallen out.
Just personal observation. I don't think the breeding time differs much from Belgium/Netherlands, but I'm no expert.
I didn't look it up, but the birds in my neighborhood in Bangkok breed from mid-June to late July.
