A timid bird that doesn’t like to leave its home, this medium-sized bird has beautiful, unique colors.

One species of bird in the Leiothrichidae family is the red-tailed laughingthrush, scientifically known as Trochoopteron milnei. This medium-sized laughing thrush has a face that is vivid rufous-chestnut brown and black, and it weighs 66-93 grams. Its ears are white, and its body is a delicate ochrous-grey. Its wingspan is 26-28 cm.

Although they appear duller, females are quite identical to me𝚗.

Countries including China, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand are home to the red-tailed laughing thrush.

The preferred habitat of these birds is the understory of broadleaf evergreen forests found exclusively in mountainous regions ranging in elevation from 1800 to 2500 meters.

The primary foods consumed by red-tailed laughing thrushes include insects, berries, and fruit, particularly the Saurauja єрeсіeƕ.

Grass and bamboo leaves are used by both sexes to construct a cup-shaped nest during the breeding season, which begins in April and continues until June. A structure that is approximately one meter tall is used to incubate three to four eggs for a period of seventeen to eighteen days. Both parents feed the newly hatched chicks until they reach full flight, which usually takes about 14 to 16 days.

The IUCN classifies it as the Least Concerned Species of Birds because of its very large range and generally steady population.
