Palawan Bulbul

Hypsipetes harterti

The Palawan Bulbul (Hypsipetes harterti) is a medium-sized songbird found in the forests and woodlands of Palawan Island in the Philippines. It has a distinctive appearance with a black head, white underparts, and olive-green upperparts. This species is known for its melodious and varied songs, often heard during the early morning and late afternoon. The Palawan Bulbul forages for fruits, insects, and small invertebrates in the dense foliage of its forest habitat. While it is not currently considered threatened, habitat loss and degradation due to deforestation pose potential risks to its population.
