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.

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.
