drongos

Drongos are a family of passerine birds found in tropical regions of Africa, Asia, and Australia. Known for their striking black or dark gray plumage and long forked tails, drongos are agile fliers and adept insect hunters, often catching their prey mid-air. They inhabit diverse ecosystems, from dense forests to open savannas, where they play a crucial role in controlling insect populations. Drongos are also known for their mimicry skills, often imitating the calls of other birds and animals to deter predators or attract mates. In many cultures, drongos hold spiritual significance and are seen as symbols of protection and intelligence. However, these birds face threats from habitat loss due to deforestation, agricultural expansion, and climate change, which degrade their natural habitats and reduce their food sources.
