Ceylon Small Barbet (Megalaima rubricapillus)

Hunas Falls

Unfortunately a fairly typical view of this wee arboreal barbet which is easiest to see at first light when it perches on the tips of branches high up to sing. Whilst it also "sings" later in the day this is usually from within the canopy!
I suspect the best chance of getting good images is finding a fruiting fig & staking it out!
