Tiny Birds in Idukki

During the 3-4 days we had in Idukki, I spotted a couple of birds near the guest house we were staying. Of course, with my camera with a mere optical zoom of 3 times, it was really tough capturing decent shots of these birds. All I managed were some shots that are maybe, just enough for identification. I've identified some as the Red-Whiskered Bulbul.

This is one species I've yet to identify. Well, not such a birder anyway!

I have'nt seen a blog post from you for months. The unidentified bird is clearly another species of bulbul, probably Sooty-headed. Where are the Idukki Hills? Knowing where the bird was seen would help confirm it's id.

Hi John,
Sorry for not posting anything for a long time, I was busy for a while.

Thanks for the rough identification, John. Appreciate it. The Idukki hills are located somewhere in the district of Idukki, which is in the middle of the state of Kerala in India.
