Description

Here's the main image from my just released, Songbird ReMix Trogons. The female is yellow in this species (despite having the Red-naped name) This near threatened bird is found in Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. It is mainly insectivorous, feasting on arthropods with a preference for stick insects and spiders. This regime is embellished with small lizards, fruits and seeds.It's endangerment is due to high rates of deforestation in the Sundaic lowlands, which have been extremely rapid, thanks to the escalation of illegal logging and land conversion that targets all remaining stands of valuable timber. Forest fires that have also had a severely damaging effect.
