PTNK-EARED BULBOUL. 



Bulbouls, so often celebrated in Persian and Hindu 

 poetry, are numerous on this Coast. The pink-eared 

 bulboul is one of the moat common birds in the Pro- 

 vinces, especially in the neighborhood of Tavoy. It is 

 crested like the American cedar bird, which it resembles 

 in habit, for it is an inveterate fruit eater, but has a little 

 crimson tuft over the eye, from which it derives its specific 

 name. Large flocks tenant the shrubbery in the suburbs 

 of Tavoy, and may be 6een coming into town early 

 every morning in little armies ; and whatever garden con- 

 tains a berry-bearing tree, is sure to be the residence 

 throughout many hours of the day of a few pink-eared 

 bulbouls.
