White-tailed or Chinese Rubythroat

Calliope [pectoralis or tschebaiewi] (= Calliope pectoralis) Gould, J 1837

The Himalayan rubythroat is a species of passerine bird in the family Muscicapidae. It is closely related to the Siberian rubythroat which however lacks the distinctive white tail-tips and white tail bases. It was also previously considered conspecific with the Chinese rubythroat, together called the white-tailed rubythroat. It is found along the Himalayan ranges from Afghanistan to Myanmar. Three subspecies are recognized across its wide range. Source: Wikipedia
