Rufous-backed Sibia

Minla ignotincta

The Rufous-backed Sibia, scientifically known as Minla ignotincta, is a small to medium-sized bird found in the eastern Himalayas and parts of Southeast Asia. It is characterized by its rufous back, black head, and bright yellow underparts. This species is often found in montane forests, where it forages for insects and small fruits in the canopy. Rufous-backed Sibias are known for their melodious calls and often move in small flocks. While their population status is not well-documented, they are generally considered to be of least concern in terms of conservation status.
