A bird on a feeding point, close to a squirrel. Published in HBW Volume 12 on page 127. Original HBW caption: Babblers are often victims of mankind’s exploitation. Many forest species are in retreat due to habitat destruction, while the most beautiful species, or the most powerful songsters, are often trapped and sold as cagebirds. Occasionally, however, babblers benefit from mankind’s benevolence, with a few species taking scraps left out for them at human settlements. Here, a squirrel shares a Chinese bird table with a Giant Laughingthrush. This handsome species, one of the largest timaliids, occurs in forest and scrub in mountainous regions of south China and Tibet. IBC scientific name: Garrulax maximus. Elevation: 2658 m. Date added to IBC: June 21, 2016.
