spectacled flowerpecker Dicaeum dayakorum

A rare, enigmatic, and only recently described Bornean endemic bird. Has the chunky and short-tailed structure typical of flowerpeckers. Mostly gray with a white stripe through the underparts, a white belly, and white spectacles around the eyes. Males may be darker and better marked, and females duller and more washed-out. Found in the canopy of lowland rainforest, where it may specialize on the fruits of epiphytes. Gives a sharp buzzing call similar to those of other flowerpeckers, and a short song of high-pitched whistles. Easily separated from other flowerpeckers by the white spectacles and the gray plumage lacking any bright colors.
