The Slender-billed Oriole is a distinctive bird found in parts of Southeast Asia, characterized by its unusually thin and slightly decurved bill. It has a more subdued plumage compared to many other orioles.
Where to spot
Found in mainland Southeast Asia, including parts of Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam. Inhabits open woodlands, bamboo forests, and secondary growth.
How to spot
Look for its olive-yellow plumage, darker wings, and most importantly, its slender, pale, and slightly decurved bill. Listen for its varied fluty calls, which are typical of orioles but may have unique qualities.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active during the day, foraging in the mid-story and canopy. Vocal particularly in the mornings.

Its unique slender bill is an adaptation for specialized feeding, possibly allowing it to probe into crevices or extract insects from tight spaces more effectively.
