The Golden-crested Myna

After starting the Makunda Nature Club, I found Rejoice Gassah, a very talented student of our Makunda school. We started exploring nearby forests together and in the following years, I taught him most of what I knew about biodiversity documentation.

He was the first to observe the Golden-crested Myna, near Dosdewa village in Karimganj District of Assam. This is a rare bird and many birders travel to Dosdewa now to see it.

Our description of this species and notes on its distribution was published in December 2018: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/330320761_Sighting_of_the_Golden-crested_Myna_Ampeliceps_coronatus_in_Karimganj_District_Assam_with_notes_on_its_distribution
