March 10, 2024 - Red-billed Scimitar-Babbler (Pomatorhinus ochraceiceps) These scimitar-babblers live in hill forests in parts of Bangladesh, China, India, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, and Laos. They eat invertebrates, as well as nectar and seeds, foraging in trees and on the ground in pairs or groups of up to six and often joining mixed-species flocks. Breeding from March to July, they build oval-shaped nests from grass blades, bamboo leaves, other leaves, rootlets, and other materials on the ground, in undergrowth, or in creepers. Females lay clutches of three to five eggs.
