1. Asian Koel, 噪鹃, 噪鵑, Eudynamys scolopaceus, オニカッコウ, TAHU ASIA

The Asian Koel (Eudynamys scolopaceus ^[3][4]) is a member of the cuckoo order of birds, the Cuculiformes. It is found in South Asia, China, and Southeast Asia. It forms a superspecies with the closely related Black-billed and Pacific Koels which are sometimes treated as subspecies. The Asian Koel is a brood parasite that lays its eggs in the nests of crows and other hosts, who raise its young. They are unusual among the cuckoos in being largely frugivorous as adults.^[5] The name koel is echoic in origin with several language variants. The bird is a widely used symbol in Indian poetry.^[6]

51. Bay Coucal, 苏拉鸦鹃, 蘇拉鴉鵑, Centropus celebensis, セレベスバンケン, Bubut Sulawesi

A reddish-brown cuckoo with a long, often shaggy-looking tail. Juvenile shows a pale eye and a paler breast and throat than adults. The species favors vine tangles within forest and forest edge in lowlands and foothills, where it is usually encountered singly or in pairs. The entirely brown body, lacking black, separates this species from Lesser Coucal. Song is a series of “hoot” notes that often encourages other nearby coucals to respond. Alarm call is a harsh, short rasping “burr.” [ebird]

This time, on the first day, we only heard the bird but couldn’t catch a glimpse of it. However, on the second day, our efforts paid off with an amazing sighting of this rare and stunning endemic species of Sumatra. Happy  for the group!

 

– 去年，我们与另一个团队一起寻找这只美丽的鸟儿，经过两天的努力，终于得到了一个令人难以置信的观赏机会。从那次经历中，我们明白了，光是耐心等待是不够的——我们需要果断行动。于是，我们决定组织另一个团队，一年后再次前往。这次，第一天我们只能听到鸟鸣，却没能看到它。然而，在第二天，我们的努力终于得到了回报，成功观赏到了这只罕见而美丽的苏门答腊特有鸟种。为团队感到开心！
