Sunbird Forest

The silvery songs of Sunbirds are heard in the evergreen forests of Goa, which cover the hills of the western ghats down to the Arabian Sea.

This recording begins with the haunting song of the Malabar Whistling Thrush, one of the most beautiful songbirds in the world. As the morning progresses we hear Woodpeckers, Babblers, Fulvettas, Drongos, Hornbills and Fruit Pigeons among a diversity of rainforest birdlife.

Discover the secret world of Goa's deep rainforests.

Andrew's note:
This album was recorded at the same location as 'Forest Nocturne', and together these albums make a day-time/night-time pair.
