Basic stats

Habitat

Compact cup nest of grass bound with cobwebs, in a tree fork

Clutch size

2–4 greenish-white eggs

Incubation period

About 14 days

The common iora lays two to four greenish-white eggs in a small, compact cup-shaped nest made of grass and bound with cobwebs, placed in the fork of a tree. Both male and female incubate, and the eggs hatch after about 14 days (Wikipedia, general species account).

That is all the source read for the Bhutan guide gives. No plumage, size, range, habitat or diet information was found, so none is stated, and its occurrence in Bhutan is flagged for checking.
