There is a gorgeous picture of a black bird sitting on a bunch of 
flowers. It is one of those symbolic images of spring in Assam.

But unfortunately, in yet another pathetic display of ignorance of 
our natural treasures, the AT labeled the flowers wrong  as "modaar" 
( Indian coral flower). I guess ALL red flowers are 'modaar' to our 
one dimensional knowldege-brigades .

Can anyone identify them correctly?

And can anyone identify the black bird?
