Speckled mousebird : ウィキペディア英語版 | Speckled mousebird
The speckled mousebird (''Colius striatus'') is the largest species of mousebird, as well as one of the most common. == Description ==
This bird is about 35 cm (14 inches) long, with the tail comprising approximately half the length, and weighs about 57 grams (2 oz). It is well-named, because it is dull-mousy brown in overall color on the back and on the head (including a prominent crest). The bill is black on the upper part and is a pinkish color on the lower part. The rare white-headed mousebird can be confused with this species, but the differently colored mandibles and the lack of a bare grey orbital patch render the Speckled species distinctive. The speckled mousebird is not known for its voice, as songbirds are, although it is a noisy creature. They make a warbling ''tsu-tsu'' call while in flight, and are known for their ''tisk-tisk'' alarm call while in flight.
