Sphecotheres viridis

The green figbird or Timor figbird (Sphecotheres viridis ) is a species of bird in the family Oriolidae. It is endemic to forest, woodland, mangrove, and scrub on the Indonesian islands of Roti and Timor. It is moderately common, so is considered to be of least concern by BirdLife International and the IUCN.

Appearance

It resembles the more widespread Australasian figbird, but is smaller, and except for the paler crissum (around the cloaca), the male is entirely yellow-olive below (including the throat).
