Himalayan Prinia

The Himalayan prinia is a member of the Cisticolidae family, formerly lumped with the striped prinia as the striated prinia. It is found in the Indian subcontinent and parts of China, with its range generally following the Himalayas, in Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Bhutan, Nepal and Yunnan (Wikipedia, general species account).

The tail is long and broad and cold-toned dark. Breeding males have a blackish crown and face and dark, mottled breast sides, and both sexes show streaking on the upperparts and mottling on the face and breast sides in the non-breeding season. Breeding females are lighter with less streaking. The source read gives no habitat, diet or nest information, so none is stated.
