Cyornis tickelliae is a small passerine bird in the flycatcher family. This is an insectivorous species which breeds in tropical Asia, from the Indian Subcontinent eastwards to Bangladesh and western Myanmar.
Tickell's blue flycatcher breeds in dry forest, scrub, bamboo and gardens.
The breeding season is April to August (March to June in Sri Lanka). It nests in a hole in a tree or amongst rocks that is lined with fine grass and fibres and lay 3-5 eggs.

I found this bird on Indian Institute of Science Campus where it is resident and is breeding. Early mornings the trees echo with the beautiful song of this tiny bird.
