Identification
A diminutive but stout and large-headed relative of the laughingthrushes. Brownish-gray with bright orange highlights on its wing feathers and a faint yellow eyebrow which curves down into a weak crescent behind the ear. Like a laughingthrush, tends to stick to the understory in thickets, dense bamboo clusters, and thick secondary growth in mid-elevational areas. Not extremely social; often seen singly, occasionally in small flocks.
