Small passerine of the white-eye family, the Oriental White-eye (Zosterops palpebrosus) is a resident breeder in India. It feeds on small insects and nectar. It is pretty easy to understand where its name come from :). Spotted in Munnar area, this Oriental White-eye (Zosterops palpebrosus) was very active, moving quickly from branch to branch. A very enjoyable sighting.

Love Nature.
