==Description== The common bulbul is {{cvt|18|-|20|cm}} in length, with a long tail. The sexes are similar in plumage but the male is on average larger. It has a dark brown head and brown upperparts. The underparts are dull grey. The bill is fairly short and thin, with a slightly downwards curving upper mandible. The bill, legs, and feet are black and the eye is dark brown with a dark eye-ring, which is not readily visible. Subspecies ''dodsoni'', ''spurius'', ''tricolor'' and ''layardi'' have yellow undertail coverts.<ref name=hbw/> The call is a loud ''doctor-quick doctor-quick be-quick be-quick''.
