Orthotomus castaneiceps

The Chestnut-headed Tailorbird is a small passerine bird found in Southeast Asia. It is known for its distinctive chestnut-colored head and olive-green upperparts. This species is often found in dense undergrowth and thickets in lowland forests and secondary growth. The Chestnut-headed Tailorbird is known for its melodious and repetitive song, often heard during the breeding season. It primarily feeds on insects and forages actively in the lower levels of the forest. While not currently assessed by the IUCN, it is generally considered to be of least concern due to its widespread distribution and stable population.
