Timor figbird

Edolisoma timoriense

The Timor figbird (Edolisoma timoriense) is a medium-sized songbird found in the forests and woodlands of Timor and nearby islands in Southeast Asia. It has a distinctive olive-green plumage with a black cap and a bright red eye. The species is known for its melodious and varied calls, often heard during the breeding season. Timor figbirds primarily feed on fruits, insects, and nectar, playing an important role in seed dispersal within their habitat. While they are generally adaptable to various forest types, habitat loss and degradation are potential threats to their populations.
