The Plumbeous Water Redstart (Rhyacornis fuliginosa, male pictured) is a species of bird in the family
Muscicapidae which is found in South Asia, Southeast Asia and China. The bird's common name refers to its colour, resembling lead. The bird tends to be found near running water, often at higher altitudes, though it will go to lower altitudes during the winter.Photo:
