"This species is found in India, generally visiting the plains in 
the cold season. It captures its insect prey on the wing, as well as 
occasionally on the ground, returning to the same perch." — (Jerd., 
Madr. Journ. XI. p. 15.) 
" It is a common species throughout the mountains, up to about 
12,000 feet, during summer, arriving about the beginning of March. 
It breeds in May and June, making a neat nest of green moss in 
holes of trees, in stumps, and in the holes of banks by the roadside. 
The eggs are three or four in number, dull white with faint rufous 
specks at the larger end, and somewhat inclined to form a ring.'* —
