Mangrove Blue Flycatcher

A rather large lory of lowland forest and semi-open areas. Mostly black with medium-length, rounded tail, reddish in the base and yellow undertail. Geographical variation and in some areas they have a reddish face, thighs and front of the underwing. Similar to Dusky and Yellow-streaked Lories in poor light. Black looks bigger-headed, is black-billed and has different flight. Yellow-streaked has little overlap but streaks should be visible even in flight. Loud and squeaky calls “kwik kwik!”. Other calls similar to a rusty door hinge.

Small stout frogmouth with a face full of wispy whiskers. Males are dark brown overall; females are bright rufous. Restricted to Borneo’s central and southern mountain ranges, where it inhabits foothill and lower montane forest. Similarly-sized Sunda Frogmouth mostly found in lowland forest. Blyth’s Frogmouth is proportionally longer-tailed, with stronger white markings on the wings and underparts. Vocalizations vary and are poorly understood; frequently gives a mournful descending whistle and a fluid, rippling, downslurred trill.

An uncommon tanager of lowland and foothill rainforest. Male is black with orange flanks, white tufts around the edges of the wings, and yellow or orange crown and rump. Female is yellow-olive with a gray crown and white or yellowish throat; some females have a broken yellow eyering. Usually found in pairs that forage in lower to middle levels of the forest, sometimes with mixed-species flocks.
