Rufous-headed Parrotbill (Psittiparus bakeri)
About the Rufous-headed Parrotbill
The rufous-headed parrotbill (Paradoxornis bakeri), or greater rufous-headed parrotbill, is a bird in the family Paradoxornithidae and is found in eastern Asia from the eastern Himalayas to Indochina. The rufous-headed parrotbill was alternatively considered as a member of the family Timaliidae, or in the Sylviidae, but it actually seems to belong to the distinct family Paradoxornithidae. It was formerly considered as conspecific with the white-breasted parrotbill. The natural habitats of the rufous-headed parrotbill are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.
