Black-throated Parrotbill

Suthora atrosuperciliaris

The Black-throated Parrotbill is a small passerine bird found in the eastern Himalayas and parts of Southeast Asia. It is characterized by its distinctive black throat and supercilium, and olive-green upperparts. This species is often found in bamboo thickets and dense undergrowth of broadleaf forests. The Black-throated Parrotbill is known for its gregarious nature, forming small flocks and emitting high-pitched calls. It primarily feeds on insects, seeds, and small fruits. While its population trend is not well-documented, habitat loss and fragmentation are potential threats to this species.
