The Ashy Prinia is a small passerine bird found in South and Southeast Asia. It is known for its distinctive ashy-grey crown and upperparts, with a white throat and belly. This species is often found in open grasslands, scrublands, and agricultural areas, where it forages for insects and small invertebrates.
