It is brown above, white below with a broken blackish necklace on the breast. It has black upstanding pointed crest and crimson 'whiskers'. These sexes are alike. The bulbul prefers better wooden localities and hence commonly found in hills up to 2500 feet. It enters gardens and is usually tame and confiding. It is joyous and querulous notes are rather similar to those of red vented bulbul, but more musical and readily distinguishable. The nesting occurs between February to August. The nest is a cup of fine twigs, rootlets.
