The Coppersmith Barbet or Crimson-breasted Barbet (Megalaima

haemacephala) is a bird with crimson forehead and neck. It is a resident

near passerine bird from South Asia, with occasional presence in

Southeast Asia. The name barbet refers to the bristles or barbs fringing

its heavy bill. It may sometimes be referred to simply as Coppersmith.

We called it (in Bengali) Chhoto Basanto Bauri... or Syekra Pakhi.
