Pittidae
Colorful mid-sized birds with short tails that make very long journeys. The name is from a Telugu word for a bird.
Indian Pitta
This Pitta, despite the brilliant colours on its plumage, is expertly camouflaged in the forests of the Western Ghats. It took me a full 30 seconds to spot this individual after my guide had pointed it to me.
