The White-rumped Munia is a small, common finch widespread across Asia. It is named for its distinctive white rump, which contrasts with its brown body.
Where to spot
Widespread across South and Southeast Asia, from India to Indonesia. Found in grasslands, cultivated areas, open woodlands, and urban parks.
How to spot
Look for its brown body and clear white rump. It is typically found foraging on the ground or clinging to grass stalks in open, grassy habitats. Listen for its high-pitched 'chit-chit' calls.
When to spot
Can be observed year-round. They are often seen in flocks, particularly when feeding on rice paddies or grass seeds.
