タンビヘキサン Cissa thalassina

Extremely rare and nearing extinction in the wild, this fluorescent green Javan endemic with a black bandit’s mask and bulbous lipstick-red bill is an unmistakable and unforgettable sight for any birder lucky enough to glimpse one. Found only in foothill forests, often joining mixed flocks. Can be quite loud, even when hidden away in dense middle levels of forest, giving chattering shrieks and a vibrant, liquid-sounding “wee’da’da!”
