About 23 cms in size this colourful bird prefers wooded areas and is a common resident across the Himalayas, North-east India and West Bengal. It can be normally seen drumming the stem of trees up to an altitude of about 1500 meters, but in summers 2000 meters is also a possibility. The fruits of almost all Ficus spp are a delicacy for this beautiful creature.
