About These Birds

Ashy-throated Warbler

The Ashy-throated Warbler is a tiny leaf warbler found in the Himalayas and mountains of Southwest China. Weighing just 5.5g with a wingspan near 9.4cm, it has an ash-grey throat and distinctive wing bars. It forages actively through conifer and mixed forest foliage, gleaning insects from leaves and twigs.

Biak Leaf-warbler

The Biak Leaf-warbler is a near-threatened, small warbler endemic to Biak Island in western New Guinea. It has greenish-olive upperparts and yellowish underparts typical of leaf-warblers in its genus. It forages actively in the forest canopy for insects, gleaning them from leaves, and its small island range makes it inherently vulnerable.
