The Yellow-throated Sparrow, also known as the Indian Yellow-throated Sparrow, is a widespread Asian species easily identified by the bright yellow patch on its throat. It prefers open woodlands and scrub.
Where to spot
Widespread across the Indian subcontinent and parts of Southeast Asia. Found in open dry deciduous forests, scrubland, and cultivated areas with scattered trees.
How to spot
Look for the clear yellow throat patch, which is diagnostic. It forages in the canopy and mid-story of trees, often in small groups. Listen for its distinctive chirping and trilling calls.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Active throughout the day, often seen foraging in trees.

This sparrow is highly arboreal compared to many other sparrows, spending more time foraging and perching in trees rather than on the ground.
