The Indian Pitta is a very special bird due to reason that they only can be seen during the migration season which is normally from August to May every year. Normally they live in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Japan, and China. I found this bird in Batticaloa, Sri Lanka. They start migrating just as winter approaches.

The Pitta is not an easy bird to see because of them being mainly active early morning and as dusk strikes. During the daytime, they search for small insects through bushes.
