Description

The collared treepie, black-faced treepie or black-browed treepie (Dendrocitta frontalis) is an Asian treepie, a small perching bird of the crow family, Corvidae. This bird is slightly smaller than a blue jay and has the typical compact body and long tail of this group. The forehead, face and bib are black with the chest, neck and shoulders a light silvery or bluish-grey in color. The back is a warm chestnut brown with similar underparts. The wing coverts are white with the primaries and tail black. It inhabits a broad band (though often very localized) from the north eastern Indian Himalayas, Bangladesh, Nepal and across into Burma (Myanmar) in hill forests often at quite high elevations. It feeds mainly on invertebrates of various types, and hawks for termites in flight; it also eats fruits and berries. It probably takes similar overall food types as the other treepies. The nest is a small, neat structure often placed in bamboo clumps, small trees or bushes at the edge of a clearing. There are usually 3-5 eggs laid. The voice is described as varied but contains metallic notes as well as the chatter alarm call sounding similar to the other species.

Feeding Habits
Collared Treepie primarily consumes invertebrates, larvae, small vertebrates like lizards and rodents, as well as eggs and nestlings of other birds. They supplement their carnivorous diet with seeds and berries. Foraging often occurs in pairs or groups, sometimes flycatching like drongos during termite swarms.
Habitat
The collared Treepie typically inhabits humid evergreen forests, which are characterized by lush, dense foliage and a preference for areas abundant in bamboo. These environments offer a rich biodiversity and serve as ideal conditions for the collared Treepie's feeding and nesting requirements.
