The Red-Whiskered Bulbul Pycnonotus jocosus is a passerine bird found in Asia. It is a member of the bulbul family. It is a resident frugivore found mainly in tropical Asia. It has been introduced in many tropical areas of the world where populations have established themselves. It feeds on fruits and small insects and they conspicuously perch on trees and their calls are a loud three or four note call. The distinctive crest and the red-vent and whiskers makes them easy to identify. They are very common in hill forests and urban gardens within its range. The Red-Whiskered Bulbul is about 20 centimetres 7.9 in in length. It has brown upper-parts and whitish underparts with buff flanks and a dark spur running onto the breast at shoulder level.
