Grey-winged Blackbird female brings in ripe dark blue Berberis kingod berries for its chicks to eat

A Grey‑winged Blackbird female brings ripe dark blue Berberis (kingod) berries to feed her chicks. The bird is a fine songster in the Himalayas, often seen foraging in undergrowth, pecking insects under dry oak leaves, and occasionally singing its melodious calls. In the wildfilmsindia sanctuary at Jabbarkhet, Uttarakhand, the bird is observed quietly in oak trees, sometimes stealing nectar from Rhododendron blossoms, while other Himalayan birds such as Hill Barbet, Blue‑throated Barbet, and Rufous Sibia accompany it with their calls.
