Issue Notice:
- The White-throated Babbler belongs to the Leiothrichidae family.
- It can be seen as common resident in Mandalay, Sagaing, Magway, Bago, Yangon, Kachin (Souther Part) and Ayeyawady (northern Part) in Myanmar.
- They are gregarious birds that forage in small groups. Because they are mostly seen in groups of six or seven, they are figuratively called "Seven-sister birds".
- They raise and flap their tail and hopp around looking for food. Male and female are same colour.
- Their size is relatively large and very long-tailed with black lores, pale eyes and white throat, upper breast contrasting with rufous-buff remainder of underparts.
- The lower body part is brownish red and light yellow. The white colour on the neck and upper breast is the prominent feature of the species.
- Scrub and bushes in semi-desert, borders of cultivation are their habitats.
