Sonnenvogel

A striking babbler-like bird of South and Southeast Asian forests, red-billed leiothrixes have brilliant orange-red bills, olive-green upper parts, and vivid yellow-orange throat and breast with red and yellow wing patches. Native to the Himalayas and southern China, they have been introduced to Hawaii, Europe, and Japan from the cage bird trade. Highly social, living in noisy flocks of 6–30 birds in undergrowth and forest edge. Listed as Least Concern globally despite introduced range concerns.
