Media notes
Indian Scimitar Babbler : male capturing and transferring food to female ... a rare capture. And ... it was sheer good luck to observe and capture a wonderful behavioral event ... of this species endemic to India .... to see ... male capturing and transfering a large spider to female as a courtship gesture ... In this image the male ( below ) has already passed on the food to the female ... who is proudly holding it ... before proceeding to finish it. Elevation: 781 m. Date added to IBC: February 18, 2019.
