Lesser Raquet-tailed Drongo :- Glossy Blue black plumage, outer tail feathers elongated like wire ending in 'raquets', giving the illusion as if the bird is pursued by a pair of bumblebees. Calls with a variety of whistles and screams, an amazing mimic.
The parent teaches the young bird the song with constant repetition, and you can hear it practising, in the trees.
