PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS:
These are rangy, medium-sized,
floppy-tailed landbirds with soft fluffy
plumage. These birds have strong legs
and are quite terrestrial. This group is
not strongly migratory, and most species
have short rounded wings, and a weak
flight. Like other babblers, these are
noisy birds, and the characteristic
laughing calls are often the best
indication that these birds are present.
As with other babbler species, they
frequently occur in groups of up to a
dozen, |
