Oriental Magpie-Robins are widely distributed throughout Pakistan, found in various habitats including gardens, parks, forests, and urban areas across the country. They are particularly common in the lowlands but can also be spotted in higher elevations.
These birds are known for their melodious songs, often heard during the breeding season. They are territorial during breeding and nesting periods, with males singing to defend their territories and attract mates. Oriental Magpie-Robins primarily feed on insects, foraging on the ground by hopping and occasionally catching insects in flight. They are generally adaptable and can thrive in diverse environments, often seen nesting in tree hollows, crevices, or man-made structures like buildings and walls.
