I heard a metallic-sounding call and spotted the caller in a nearby tree: the Greater Racket-tailed Drongo (Dicrurus paradiseus) at Singapore Botanic Gardens, Singapore on 18 Oct 2026. On iNaturalist [ inaturalist.org/observations… ]. #BirdsSeenIn2026
A bird with dark, shiny feathers perched on a branch. Its back is facing the camera, and it is looking to the left. It has red eyes and two long wire-like tails with a dark 'flag' at the ends.
