Spot-breasted Parrotbill
The Spot-breasted Parrotbill (Paradoxornis guttaticollis) is a species of bird in the Paradoxornithidae family. It is a bulbous-headed brown bird with a comically large pale yellow bill which is oddly twisted, making it seem as if the bird is smiling.
The bird as you can see is brownish overall, with a rich chestnut cap and paler underparts. Its face is liberally splattered with black splotches, the largest patch on the ear where it forms a thick crescent.
