The Green Shrike-babbler is a small, attractive bird of Asian mountain forests, typically displaying green upperparts and yellow on its wings and underparts. It's often found high in the canopy, joining mixed-species flocks.
Where to spot
Widely distributed across the Himalayas and mountains of Southeast Asia, from Nepal to Vietnam and Indonesia. It inhabits montane broadleaf and evergreen forests.
How to spot
Look for its green and yellow plumage, and listen for its distinctive, often repetitive, whistled calls. Scan the mid to upper canopy, often within mixed-species foraging flocks.
When to spot
Active year-round in its resident montane habitat. Most vocal during the breeding season. Best observed during the cooler parts of the day, particularly early mornings.
