Beautiful birds flitted in and out among the shrubs grass-green doves, large black cockatoos, golden orioles, and king-crows their varied and brilliant colours flashing brightly as they darted forth here and there in the sunlight from out of the dark shade.
Beautiful grass-green doves, little crimson and black flower-peckers, large black cuckoos, metallic king-crows, golden orioles, and the fine jungle-cocks the origin of all our domestic breeds of poultry were among the birds that chiefly attracted my attention during our stay at Labuan Tring.

Other birds, as, for example, king-crows and bee-eaters, have discovered how excellent a way this is of securing a good supply of food.
