Rufous treepie
The rufous treepie (''Dendrocitta vagabunda'') is a treepie, native to the Indian Subcontinent and adjoining parts of Southeast Asia. It is a member of the crow family, Corvidae. It is long tailed and has loud musical calls making it very conspicuous. It is found commonly in open scrub, agricultural areas, forests as well as urban gardens. Like other corvids it is very adaptable, omnivorous and opportunistic in feeding. In Bengali and some other Indian languages it is called "Harichacha" (হাঁড়িচাচা), after the unpleasant sound it produces.
==Description==
The sexes are alike and the main colour of the body is cinnamon with a black head and the long graduated tail is bluish grey and is tipped in black. The wing has a white patch. The only confusable species is the grey treepie which however lacks the bright rufous mantle. The bill is stout with a hooked tip. The underparts and lower back are a warm tawny-brown to orange-brown in colour with white wing coverts and black primaries. The bill, legs and feet are black.
The widespread populations show variations and several subspecies are recognized. The nominate subspecies is found in the northeastern part of peninsular India south to Hyderabad. The desert form is paler and called ''pallida'', ''vernayi'' of the Eastern Ghats is brighter while ''parvula'' of the Western Ghats is smaller in size.〔 The form in Afghanistan and Pakistan is ''bristoli'' while the form in southern Thailand is ''saturatior''. E C Stuart Baker describes ''sclateri'' from the upper Chindwin to the Chin Hills and ''kinneari'' from souther Myanmar and northwest Thailand. The population in eastern Thailand an Indochina is ''sakeratensis''.
