A long list of products for a small bird ! For Drungtso (1999) it is 'a small yellow feathered bird with red stripes on the head'. I don't know such a bird in Tibet. The closest would be ser 'jol, a Goldcrest, a greenish bird with a yellow-orange crown. It is supposed to be present in Tibet, but rather East-Tibet (pers. comm. tibetbirds).
