Rufous-bellied Triller (Lalage aurea)

The distinctive rufous underparts are unique among trillers. This is a male. Females are paler overall. They are confined to a restricted-range in the Northern Moluccas where they are endemic. Trillers are in the Cuckooshrike family (Campephagidae) and tend to forage high in the canopy making them easy to overlook. Sometimes called Red-bellied Triller or Moluccan Triller or Black-backed Triller.
