- Cover photo description:
- Drongos range from Africa to Central Asia, Australia, and western Pacific islands, inhabiting forests, open country, and gardens. They feed like flycatchers or shrikes, taking large insects and termites. Their voices are loud mixtures of harsh and sweet sounds; some species, like the racket-tail, are good mimics. The nest is a flimsy basket that seems too small for the brooding bird. drongo, any of approximately 26 species of Old World woodland birds constituting the family Dicruridae order Passeriformes. Drongos frequently attack much larger birds e.g., hawks and crows that might hurt their eggs or young; innocuous birds such as doves and orioles nest near drongos to gain protection. Most drongos are 18 to 63.5 cm 7 to 25 inches long and glossy black, sometimes with white on the head or underparts sexes alike; the eyes, in most, are fiery red. Some are crested or have head plumes, and the tail is usually long and forked, with outturned corners. The tail of the Southeast Asian racket-tailed drongo Dicrurus paradiseus bears 30-cm 12-inch “wiresâ€â€”outer feathers that are unbranched for most of their length and carry rather large vanes at the ends.
