Abstract
During a patrolling duty in Jigme Singye Wangchuck National Park (JSWNP) in Bhutan, a lone male Blue-and-white Flycatcher Cyanoptila cyanomelan was observed and photographed. This is the first photographic evidence and confirmation on presence of the species in Bhutan. These new record confirm an extension of the species’ distribution in the North East Indian Sub Continent. As this is new record to Bhutan, there could be other undetected incidence of migrant species occurrence in the country. More observation must be carried out during bird migration seasons to discover such instances.

After referring to several online websites such as Birdlife International, ebird and circulation of the photographs amongst many birdwatchers through the social media facebook forum Birds of Bhutan, the bird was initially identified as a male Blue-and-white Flycatcher by Tim Inskipp and was later confirmed by Dr Sherub, ornithologist at Ugyen Wangchuck Institute for Conservation and Educational Research Institute in Bhutan
