The rufous-chinned laughingthrush is a mid-sized laughingthrush found along the Himalayas and ranging across Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Thailand, Tibet and Vietnam. It can be identified by the combination of a black cap and a band on the brown tail (Wikipedia, general species account).
The underparts are greyish while the upperparts have scale-like feather patterning. A distinctive pale buff loreal patch and a broad dark moustachial stripe bordering the rufous chin and ear coverts are identifying features, though there is considerable geographic variation in plumage. The source read gives no habitat, diet or breeding information, so none is stated.
