Reed Parrotbill
(Paradoxornis heudei)

Reed Parrotbills are found in eastern China and Manchuria.
They are a rare birds species on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.  Because of rareness, the the Reed Parrotbill has been nicknamed 'the panda of birds'.   Their first recorded sighting occurred less than 150 years ago and they are now found and restricted to reed-bed habitats
which are in decline.
