Using spider silk and plant fibers, the common tailorbird can stitch leaves together to create a deep, cup-shaped nest that is lined with soft materials.

Bornean Rufous-tailed Tailorbird. They're common in Borneo's lowlands.

If you were coming to Borneo, what's the #1 endemic you'd want to tick off your list?

A tailorbird is a bird known for its remarkable ability to sew leaves together to create a nest. This process involves puncturing the edges of leaves and using plant fibers to stitch them together, creating a sturdy and camouflaged nest that protects the chicks from predators.

Rufous-tailed Tailorbird (Orthotomus sericeus). Behaves more like a babbler in the undergrowth than a tailorbird. #BirdsSeenIn2026 #Ipoh #Perak #Malaysia #birds #nature #wildlife @birdsoftheworld.bsky.social @tonyrinaud.bsky.social

Common Tailorbird south east Aisa

Male helps by gathering nesting materials, while the female does the intricate leaf-sewing.
The female does most or all of the specialized work. She uses her beak like a needle to pierce holes in leaves and stitches them together with plant fibers or spider silk.
