About These Birds
Black-headed Parrotbill
The Black-headed Parrotbill is a vulnerable, small and delicate parrotbill with a black cap, white underparts, and a stout orange bill suited for manipulating seeds and insects. It is known from very few localities in southern Vietnam and possibly adjacent Laos, inhabiting bamboo thickets and tall grass within or adjacent to forest. It feeds by creeping through dense stems gleaning insects and seeds.
