The Indian blackbird (Turdus simillimus) is the only all-black thrush found in Sri Lanka with a reddish-orange beak, feet, and eye rings and both sexes are almost identical in appearance. The feeding ecology of the blackbird is described as omnivorous with primarily animal prey, feeding on a wide range of invertebrates such as insects, spiders, snails, and earthworms. They also feed on seeds, berries, and ripened fruits when in season.
