Rickett's fulvetta

Suthora ricketti

Rickett's fulvetta (Suthora ricketti) is a small, active bird found in the mountainous regions of central China. It is characterized by its olive-brown upperparts, pale underparts, and distinctive white eye-ring. This species is often found in mixed-species flocks, foraging for insects and small invertebrates in dense undergrowth and bamboo thickets. Rickett's fulvetta is known for its melodious and varied song, which it uses to communicate with its flock members. While not currently considered globally threatened, habitat loss and fragmentation due to deforestation are potential threats to its population.

Habitat: Mountainous regions, dense undergrowth, bamboo thickets
