Common Paradise Kingfisher Tanysiptera galatea

It is found in subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests of the Maluku Islands and New Guinea. The nest is made in an active termite nest in a tree. The termites build a termitarium against the tree trunk and the birds excavate a hole in its earthen wall.

Least Concern

Rainbow Starfrontlet Coeligena iris

A hummingbird from Ecuador and Peru. The rainbow starfrontlet forages for nectar by trap-lining, visiting a circuit of a wide variety of flowering plants, most of which have tubular red flowers. Its population size is not known and is believed to be decreasing. Its natural habitat is heavily fragmented but the effects of deforestation may be somewhat mitigated by the species' acceptance of human-made landscapes such as gardens and parks.

Least Concern

Timor Flying Dragon Draco timorensis

Found on the Lesser Sunda Islands of Timor-Leste and Indonesia. They are capable of gliding flight via membranes that may be extended to create wings (patagia). They are arboreal insectivores.

Least Concern
