The Black-crowned Pitta is a small, brilliantly colored pitta of lowland forests in Borneo, with a glossy black crown and nape, blue wings, scarlet underparts, and vivid patterning. It inhabits the dense undergrowth of primary lowland and foothill rainforests, rarely venturing into secondary growth. It feeds on earthworms, snails, insects, and other invertebrates found on the forest floor.
Azure-breasted Pitta
The Azure-breasted Pitta is a Vulnerable passerine endemic to the Philippines, weighing about 91.75g with a wingspan of 22.9cm. It inhabits the floor and understory of lowland and foothill forests, and is recognized by its brilliant azure-blue breast. Ongoing deforestation across its island range poses a serious threat to this species.
