We then left and went to the third hide of the day with Rufous-backed Sibia, Spot-breasted Laughingthrush, Grey-sided Laughingthrush and the much-wanted Grey Peacock-Pheasant being the key targets. All showed well but the peacock-pheasant left it to the last possible second to appear and just as we were about to leave at 6.15pm.

Driving back down the mountain this evening was punctuated with a stop to look at a roost of 8 Collared Falconets perched in the top of a leafless tree practically at eye-level from us. Wow!
