Bornean Stubtail

Mixornis kelleyi

The Bornean Stubtail (Mixornis kelleyi) is a small, elusive bird found in the dense undergrowth of montane forests in Borneo. It is characterized by its short tail and subtle brown plumage, making it well-camouflaged in its preferred habitat. This species is known for its distinctive song, a series of high-pitched notes that can be heard echoing through the forest. Bornean Stubtails are insectivorous, foraging for small invertebrates on the forest floor and in low vegetation. Due to its secretive nature and remote habitat, the Bornean Stubtail remains poorly studied and its population status is not well understood.

Habitat: Montane forests of Borneo
