The white-headed munia is a small bird, typically 11-12 cm long, with a white head. This white head is a contrasting feature where the rest of the plumage is usually dark brown or black. There are generally brown and white striped feathers on the chest and abdominal areas.
They are usually found in open areas such as rice fields, grasslands and meadows. These birds, which feed on seeds, gather food by traveling in flocks and live in social groups. During the breeding season, whitehead munia use dry grass for nesting and often nest in tree cavities or bushes.
For bird watchers and nature lovers, viewing the white-headed munia in its colorful plumage and vibrant natural habitat offers a delightful experience. This species is important for its protection as a part of the ecosystems in the regions where it is endemic and for supporting sustainable habitats.
