It is truly a bird from paradise. I was sitting in our house front porch and sang a song praising God for his creation. This paradise bird showed up, sand a song and quickly flew off . It was the first time I had seen the bird. It looked so magical with the white long tail and bright blue head.

Hi Thanks for this beautiful video. I vividly remember seeing this bird in my college campus in the year 2004. I was sitting in a bench in our campus alone. I heard a long ribbon moving upwards and I was so surprised to find out it was a bird's tail. None of my friends believed me. However I learnt the name.of the bird only few years ago.

Great movie and narration! A rare treat to the eyes. Thank you, Shashankji. I came across this bird in the forests of Sirsi, Karnataka, three years ago, and could only manage a few shots of this beautiful bird from a distance. Couldn't find its name, though, so far. Only today could I get to know its name, from an avid bird enthusiast whom I met accidentally. She identified the bird as a male Bird of Paradise, which she had seen in Udaipur.

Hello, the Indian paradise flycatcher is usually seen in two colors (morphs) - white and light orange (there may be some birds that display a bit of both - white and orange). The first bird you have described fits the description of the same. We are not sure about the other birds mentioned.
