Nonbreeding adults lack the gray but retain the white brow and throat.

Usually found in open, scrubby habitats, including overgrown fields and forest edges.

The Eurylaimidae are a family of passerine birds that occur from the eastern Himalayas to Indonesia and the Philippines. These strikingly patterned broadbills of Asia are forest canopy birds, often revealed only by their throaty staccato calls. The Near Threatened Black-and-Yellow Broadbill (Eurylaimus ochromalus) is utterly unmistakable in its costume of black, white, yellow & pink. It has a wide, deep-based bill, typical of the broadbills, in bright blue. Forages at middle to high levels in lowland and hill forests, frequently moving with mixed-species flocks and sallying out from a perch. Song is disproportionately loud, a series of high-pitched coos that increases in pitch and speed, turning into a maddened series of loud whistles.

The Silver-eared is an attractive medium-sized laughingthrush with a gray body, golden-yellow wings, dark face, and chestnut crown. Note the dark orangish “bib”, the color of which varies by range; northern birds have the brightest patches. The namesake silver ear patches are rather rounded & blend smoothly into the gray of the neck. Usually seen scratching around noisily in dense undergrowth, often singly, or in pairs or small flocks. They are found in montane and hill forests, as well as forest edges with dense low growth.
