Black and White Triller
BLACK AND WHITE TRILLER
Lalage melanoleuca
Campephagidae Family
Bird #147 - April 2009
This is a Philippine endemic. We saw two of them at the start of our 12-hour birding day in Mt Makiling. We would have thought this was a Pied Triller if we weren't with Des Allen! This bird is bigger than a Pied Triller. Its name sound like two Michael Jackson songs!
Des also said that once you enter the forests, you see mostly endemics because the other birds don't go into the forests.
