One of the birds I wanted to get video of was the
Red-faced Liocichla, a beautiful small babbler-like Thailand bird. It's usually shy and a skulker, as it forages unobtrusively for berries, seeds and insects in the undergrowth.
A lot of the video I took was of a little reddish bird disappearing into the undergrowth, but this guy came out to feed on some rice. It's only a very short video, due to a naughty Chestnut-crowned Laughingthrush that scared the Liocichla away and then didn't even eat any rice.
It's name sounds Mexican, but it is found in Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Laos, Myanmar, Nepal, Thailand, and Vietnam. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.
