About These Birds

Andaman Cuckooshrike

The Andaman Cuckooshrike is a near-threatened bird with a 31.8 cm wingspan, weighing 111 grams, restricted to the Andaman Islands. It inhabits primary and secondary forest, foraging in the canopy for insects and small prey. Its limited island range makes it susceptible to habitat loss.

Black-bibbed Cicadabird

The Black-bibbed Cicadabird is a Vulnerable species restricted to the island of Mindanao in the southern Philippines, where it inhabits the interior of primary lowland and montane forests. Males are dark grey with a blackish throat bib, while females are barred brownish. Extensive deforestation on Mindanao has substantially reduced its forest habitat, placing this species under significant pressure.
