| Bird Family : | Remizidae - Penduline Tits |
| Bird Group : | PASSERIFORMES |
| Red Data Status : | Least Concern |
| Remarks : | It was in a mixed flock with Oriental White-eyes Zosterops palpebrosus, and it was only after I scanned the bush thoroughly, I was able to figure out a Fire-capped Tit in the group. The tree it was hopping/perching on was on a steep cliff making it difficult to sight and keep the focus on the bird. Also, the weather was quite bad and light was quite low. - MK |
