About These Birds

Black Baza

The Black Baza is a small, striking raptor of South and Southeast Asia with a bold crest, black upperparts, and white underparts barred with chestnut. It inhabits tropical and subtropical forests, including forest edges and secondary growth, from the foothills of the Himalayas through Myanmar, southern China, and the Malay Peninsula. It feeds primarily on large insects, frogs, and lizards, often hunting in small groups.

Black Honey-buzzard

The Black Honey-buzzard is a vulnerable, medium-large raptor with dark brown to blackish plumage and a relatively long tail adapted for soaring over forest. It is endemic to New Britain Island in the Bismarck Archipelago of Papua New Guinea, inhabiting primary lowland and montane rainforest. Like other honey-buzzards, it specializes in raiding the nests of bees and wasps, feeding on larvae, pupae, and honeycomb.
