Media notes
A bird foraging on the ground. Published in HBW Volume 12 on page 111. Original HBW caption: The Puff-throated Babbler is a terrestrial forager, habitually rummaging among dead leaves and turning them over in search of insects. It occurs from India to Peninsular Malaysia and Vietnam, often in drier vegetation, including deciduous forests, roadside scrub, overgrown gardens, acacia thickets and bamboo. In these habitats, pairs or small groups make an audible rustling when searching for food. Some babblers hop when they are on the ground, others walk, but Puffthroated Babblers are known to use both modes of locomotion, depending on context. IBC scientific name: Pellorneum ruficeps hilarum. Elevation: 1262 m. Date added to IBC: June 21, 2016.
