White-throated Fantail (Rhipidura albicollis) is a small passerine bird found in Pakistan. It is characterized by its striking black and white plumage, with a distinctive white throat patch contrasting against its dark upperparts. This bird features a long, elegant tail that it often fans out in a distinctive display while foraging for insects.

White-throated Fantail is distributed across various regions of Pakistan, particularly in forested and wooded habitats, including moist deciduous forests, scrublands, and gardens. It can be observed in both lowland and foothill areas, as well as in some higher altitude regions where suitable habitat exists.
White-throated Fantails are highly active and agile birds, constantly flitting and darting among foliage in search of insects. They are known for their distinctive tail-fanning behavior, which they use to flush out prey and communicate with conspecifics. These birds are typically seen in pairs or small family groups during the breeding season, but they may join mixed-species foraging flocks outside of the breeding period. White-throated Fantails are vocal birds, often emitting a series of melodious calls and chirps while foraging or defending their territory.
