分布与栖息地

An open country species inhabiting grassland and agricultural land with trees and scrub, while introduced populations are found in urban areas. Breeding has been recorded in March and May in the Philippines. <p>IUCN has assessed this bird as vulnerable with its population continuing to decline. Its main threat is heavy interspecific competition from spotted doves and red collared doves.<p>Conservation actions proposed to clarify nature and extent of threat from spotted doves and red collared doves are identification of remaining strongholds, monitoring of population trends, and assessment of desirability and feasibility of the control of competing species.

Jambandu Indigobird

Jambandu Indigobird

Vidua raricola

A nest parasite that lays its eggs in the nests of Zebra Waxbills. Breeding males are glossy black with green or blue iridescence and a pale brownish panel in the wings. Females and non-breeding males are streaky and brown on the back and pale below, with a bold facial pattern. The bill is whitish and the legs very pale purplish. A scarce and poorly known species. Found in wetlands, moist grasslands, and cultivation. Given current knowledge, can only be confidently identified by vocalizations. Imitates the “svet” calls of its host, Zebra Waxbill, and often mixes them into a scratchy jumble of high-pitched notes. 

Jambu Fruit-Dove

Jambu Fruit-Dove

Ptilinopus jambu

The plum-red face and pink “blush” on the white chest of the cartoonish-looking male are unique. Plainer female and juvenile can be difficult to separate from female Black-naped Fruit Dove; look out for Jambu’s bright white eye-ring and orange bill. Generally uncommon and nomadic; roams widely across lowland and foothill forests, where it seeks out fruiting trees. Forages quietly in the canopy, typically singly or in pairs.

Carrion Crow

Carrion Crow

Corvus corone

The quintessential big black crow, without obvious field marks. Juvenile Rook has longer, more pointed bill with more extensive feathering on base. Smaller than Common Raven, which has longer, wedge-shaped tail, heavier bill, shaggy throat, and deeper voice. Ravens soar and glide readily, whereas crows typically flap continuously. Common in varied open and semi-open habitats from towns and farmland to open woodland and moorland. Found in pairs or small groups; large flocks only at roosts. Typically gives raucous caws.
