They are the most joyous birds and reside in well-wooden localities. These busy-bodies spend most of their time hunting for insects- climbing about and clinging to sprigs and flowering stems in every conceivable position, peering under the leaves, probing into flowers and searching the crevices of the bark. Their food consists mainly of insects, but seeds and berries are also eaten. In the breeding season, the male utters a loud, clear, whistling song. Both sexes share in building, incubation and care of the young.
The Chestnut-bellied Nuthatch is not a bird of deep forest though it likes wooded tracts. It is partial to mango groves on the outskirts of villages. On a casual glimpse, it is possible to mistake it for a tree mouse. It utters feeble mousy squeaks and also has a quick-repeated double note: Chilp-Chilp.
These birds are found throughout India especially in Assam. The Babbler inhabits outlying jungle as well as well-wooded compounds, gardens and groves of trees about towns and villages.

This bird is only met with in the plains during the cold weather. The pretty little song is seldom heard while the birds are in their winter quarters.

This bird is one of the most familiar and confiding birds of our country. It inhabits the drier and more open parts and is a frequent visitor to gardens and compounds. It loves the neighbourhood of villages where one may come across it perched on a thatch roof, and cactus hedge or stone, uttering its cherry notes.
