Black drongo
<p>Drongos are bold birds that chase away larger birds of prey, and have thus earned their local name kotwal (meaning guard). They prefer sitting in the open, on poles or branches, to get a vantage point. Juxtaposed against a full moon, this drongo with its slender, forked tail makes a pleasing silhouette.</p>
