Grey-bellied Tesia

Tesia everetti

The Grey-bellied Tesia is a small, insectivorous bird found in the forests of Southeast Asia. It is characterized by its olive-brown upperparts, grey underparts, and distinct white eyering. This species is known for its secretive behavior, often foraging in dense undergrowth and staying low to the ground. It has a melodious song that is often heard during the breeding season. The Grey-bellied Tesia is typically found in montane and submontane forests, where it prefers damp and mossy environments. Despite its relatively wide distribution, its population trend is not well-documented, and more research is needed to assess its conservation status.

Habitat: Montane and submontane forests
