I. Birds of which the plumage is entirely black 

 or appears to he so from a distance 



1. The Jungle Crow (i). E. W. K. 



2. The Himalayan Whistling Thrush (29). 

 E. W. K. (A good deal of cobalt blue in the 

 plumage which is only noticeable in the sun- 

 light.) 



3. The Himalayan Black Bulbul (37). E. 

 W. K. (There is much grey in the plumage, and 

 the bill is red. I have included this among 

 the black birds, because seen from a little 

 distance it looks black.) 



4. The Black Drongo (43). W. E. 



5. The Indian Ashy Drongo (44). E. W. K. 

 (The plumage of this bird is dark indigo above 

 and slaty below, but I have included the species 

 among black birds because, seen from a dis- 

 tance, it looks black.) 



6. The Grey-winged Ouzel (85). E. W.
