Marigold Lorikeet

Trichoglossus capistratus

A handsome long-tailed green parrot with a purple head, a red bill, and a striking yellow chest and collar. In flight, note conspicuous yellow underwings. Juveniles have a brown bill and are duller in color. Pairs and small groups inhabit a variety of forest types in the lowlands of its limited range in the Lesser Sundas. Differs from Olive-headed Lorikeet in being a larger, lowland species with a dark purple-colored head. Regularly gives ear-splitting shrieks.

Chestnut-crested Yuhina

Chestnut-crested Yuhina

Staphida everetti

This sprightly and social little bird is the only yuhina in Borneo, where it can be found in forested areas within the island’s central highlands. Gray back, clean white underparts, and ginger-orange crest and face create a clean color palette. Gives sharp “wit” and “chit” notes, as well as rattling “chirr”s, as noisy flocks move through the treetops. Commonly in single-species flocks but will also join mixed flocks.

White-browed Scrubwren

White-browed Scrubwren

Sericornis frontalis

Small scrubwren with white eyebrow and pale iris. Has a dark face with a clear white eyebrow and chin stripe. Primarily olive-brown with a black-and-white shoulder patch and paler front. Chin is white with varying levels of black streaking depending on the location. This species is widespread across eastern coastal Australia, but is absent in the northern areas. Western edge of its expected distribution is the Mt Lofty Ranges east of Adelaide. Found in a wide range of habitats but typically only present where there is reasonably thick undergrowth. It often makes a grumpy buzzing call but also sings a clear musical song.

Silvery Wood-Pigeon

Silvery Wood-Pigeon

Columba argentina

Beautiful grayish-white pigeon with black wing- and tail-tips. Rare, little-known, and extremely localized; now found only on islands off western Sumatra (though may occasionally wander onto the main island), where it forages in lowland and hill forest. Vocalizations poorly understood and seldom heard; documented giving deep, sonorous, rising coos.
