The red-eared bulbul (scientific name: Parus rubidiventris) is a common small bird belonging to the tit family. They are smaller, about 10 centimeters long, and are dark blue all over, with some bright red feathers on their head, throat and chest. In China, red-eared bulbuls are mainly distributed in Northeast, North, Southwest and East China.
Red-eared bulbuls typically live in tree-rich environments such as forests, mountains, and city parks. They are alert, lively and active, fly quickly and often jump between branches. The red-eared bulbul is an omnivore and feeds mainly on insects, fruits and seeds.
In China, the red-eared bulbul is considered a symbol of good luck and is also regarded as a representative of dexterity, intelligence and hard work. The red-eared bulbul often appears in poetry and paintings, and is described as a simple and beautiful natural scene.
