Apparently, Longcanggou is a great place to see a variety of parrotbill species. I can only partly confirm this, with my sightings restricted to two species. Like many of the largest species within bird families, the Great Parrotbill looks somewhat plain, at least in the weather I encountered it.

One of my target species for the trip was Indian Blue Robin.

Not bad given that the 5 families in the inner circle of the laughingthrush family have a combined number of about 68 species.
