The White-cheeked Barbet

The White-cheeked Barbet or Small Green Barbet is a species of barbet found in southern India. It is very similar to the more widespread Brown-headed Barbet but this species has a distinctive supercilium and a broad white cheek stripe below the eye and is endemic to the forest areas of the Western Ghats and adjoining hills.
