Description
Habitat
Biome: Terrestrial
Ecology: It inhabits dense reed thickets, mixed tall grassland, wild cardamom and bamboo
, predominantly on wet substrates, along lowland river
floodplains
and adjacent
hills
, where it also occurs in grassy forest
clearings. It is found up to at least 900 m
, and locally up to 2,400 m generally in small flocks, except during the breeding season
(April- July). It is presumably resident, although there is some indication
that it makes local seasonal movements in response to the rainy season
