The Aegithina tiphia, commonly known as the Common Iora, is a small bird found in parts of South and Southeast Asia. It typically inhabits forests, gardens, and scrublands, where it can be seen flitting among the foliage. The male is characterized by its bright yellow underparts and olive-green upperparts, while the female is more subdued in color. This species primarily feeds on insects and fruits, using its agile movements to catch prey. The Common Iora is known for its melodious song, which it uses to communicate and establish territory during the breeding season.
