Dark-necked tailorbird

Orthotomus atrogularis

The Dark-necked tailorbird (Orthotomus atrogularis) is a small passerine bird found in Southeast Asia. It is known for its distinctive dark neck and olive-brown upperparts. The underparts are pale yellow with a white throat and a dark band across the breast. This species is often found in dense undergrowth and thickets, where it forages for insects and small invertebrates. Its loud, repetitive calls are a common sound in its habitat. The Dark-necked tailorbird is known for its agile and acrobatic movements as it navigates through the dense foliage. While not currently considered threatened, its habitat loss due to deforestation and urbanization poses a potential risk to its population.
