About These Birds
Beijing Hill-warbler
The Beijing Hill-warbler is a small, skulking warbler of dense dry scrub and stony hillsides in northern China and the Mongolian border region. It has streaked brown plumage and a pale supercilium, and its song is the easiest way to detect this secretive species. It feeds on insects and small seeds in thickets and low shrubs.
Ashy-throated Parrotbill
The Ashy-throated Parrotbill is a small passerine found in bamboo and shrubby habitats in the mountains of southwestern China and adjacent Southeast Asia. Weighing under 9g, it has a distinctive pale grey throat and the stubby, deep bill characteristic of parrotbills. It forages in small flocks, extracting seeds and insects from bamboo stems.
