Chat Birds are very interactive birds and they don't fear you much. Like the Brown Rock Chat which I covered earlier on this blog, Grey Bush Chat is also a very friendly bird and doesn't fear coming close to you. Brown Rock Chat is found in lower parts of India while Grey Bush Chat is a Himalayan Bird and I found it in Himachal Pradesh near Baijnath.

As Brown Rock Chat can be found up to a height of 1300 meters, on the other hand, Grey Bush Chat is found in higher reaches. Those people who lived in the Himalayan region then must have noticed these tiny birds. Though, grey bush chats are less common as compared to Brown Rock Chat.
