Figbird - Sphecotheres viridis

Figbirds are part of a worldwide family that includes the orioles, of which Australia has two other members (the Yellow and Olive-backed Orioles). Figbirds have a blackish bill, which easily distinguishes the species from the similar Olive-backed Oriole, which has a reddish bill. Both of the Australian orioles also lack the Figbird’s bare-eye skin and have red eyes (adults). The Figbird tends to be more gregarious than either of the orioles, living semi-colonially. The Figbird nests in small, semi-colonial groups, with nests often quite close together.

Male Australasian Figbirds have bare, red skin around a dark eye, contrasting against a black crown and grey neck and throat. The remainder of the body is olive-green, except for a white under-tail area. Females have grey skin around the eye and lack distinctive head markings. They are brown-green above and dull-white below, streaked with brown. Both sexes have a blackish bill. There are two distinct colour forms of the males of this species. Males north of Proserpine in Queensland have a yellow front. (Text Source: BirdLife Australia)
