Short Description:

White-crowned Penduline-Tit (Remiz coronatus) is a small passerine bird with distinct white markings on its crown, contrasting with a grey-brown body. It has a slender bill and a long, graduated tail. This species exhibits sexual dimorphism, with males sporting a black stripe across their white crown, while females have a plain white crown.

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast

White-crowned Penduline-Tit is primarily found in the northern regions, including mountainous areas such as the Himalayas and Karakoram range. It prefers habitats with dense vegetation near water bodies, including marshes, riversides, and wetlands.

White-crowned Penduline-Tits are known for their acrobatic foraging behavior, often hanging upside down from branches while searching for insects and larvae. They build intricate, hanging nests made of plant fibers, which are suspended from twigs or reeds near water sources. These birds are generally solitary or found in small family groups, and they are known for their melodious, high-pitched calls.
