Golden-fronted Leafbird

The golden-fronted leafbird (Chloropsis aurifrons) ranges from the Indian subcontinent and south-western China to Southeast Asia. It is about 20 cm long. Adults are green with a black face and throat bordered in yellow, a yellowish-orange forehead and a blue moustachial line, with blackish bill and feet and dark brown irises. It resembles the blue-winged leafbird but lacks blue in the flight feathers and tail sides. Young birds have a plain green head without the black face and throat, and females show slightly duller black. The southern Indian race frontalis has a narrower yellow border to the face, and the smaller insularis occurs further south, including Sri Lanka. The Sumatran leafbird was formerly included as a subspecies but differs extensively and is now a separate species. It is a common resident of forest canopy, deciduous forest, woodland and scrub in India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia, and visits wooded gardens and plantations. Highly acrobatic, it often hangs upside down from twigs to glean insects and spiders, also feeding on nectar and berries and pollinating flowers as it feeds. Its song is a high, liquid, whistling warble, and it skilfully imitates other birds such as the tailorbird, black drongo and common iora. It moves in pairs or small groups of up to eight. As a nectar- and fruit-eating softbill it takes effort to keep, and in Japan imported birds occasionally appear at specialist shops.
