Myzornis pyrrhoura

The Fire-tailed Myzornis is a small, colorful bird found in the eastern Himalayas. It is known for its striking plumage, with a bright red tail and a combination of green, blue, and yellow on its body. This species is typically found in dense, moss-laden forests at high elevations, where it forages for insects and small invertebrates. The Fire-tailed Myzornis is known for its acrobatic behavior, often clinging to branches and moss-covered surfaces while searching for food. Despite its vibrant appearance, this species can be elusive and difficult to spot due to its preference for dense vegetation.
