Indian Paradise flycatcher (Female)
Scientific Name: Terpsiphone paradisi
Marathi Name: स्वर्गीय नर्तक
The Indian paradise flycatcher is a medium-sized passerine bird native to Asia, where it is widely distributed. The females are cinnamon above with a grayish throat, a shorter tail, and they lack the male's blue eyering. They make short aerial sallies after insects, usually returning to the same perch. Occasionally descends to ground to pull apart insects. Chiefly found in wooded habitats. Their call is a harsh “shreew."
