July 30, 2026 - Bornean Black-capped Babbler (Pellorneum capistratoides) Found on Borneo and Banggi Island, these ground babblers live in lowland and foothill forests. They eat insects, spiders, worms, and snails, foraging alone or in pairs on the ground and sometimes in the undergrowth. Breeding from May to June in parts of their range, they build cup-shaped nests from dead leaves, twigs, coarse fern roots, fine fibers, rootlets, and dry grasses on the ground hidden in leaves, saplings, or fern clumps, or in spiny palms or bushes. Females lay clutches of two eggs.
