Common Iora

Aegithina tiphia

Common Iora

The adult Common Iora is a small, agile songbird of wooded edges, mangroves, plantations, parks, and gardens across South and Southeast Asia. It forages actively among leaves, taking insects, larvae, spiders, and occasional small fruit. Adults move with quick hops and short flights, often flicking their wings and calling from dense cover. Breeding males can show striking yellow-and-black plumage and perform fluttering display flights with whistling calls.
