Can't be sure of this bird. Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo. (1 Viewer)

Taken at local park trees. Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo. 18th Oct 2020.

Can tell which species it is by the look of these 2 angles shots only? I heard Plaintive Cuckoo calling on the same tree but could not spot it. Then saw in a very dense branches, small movement of this bird. Only manage to take 2 clear shot of it.

It is little bigger than Yellow-vented bulbul. Can tell in Pic #1, its eye iris are little orange also its tip of beak little curved downward.

Based on its body color, I am guessing it is not Plaintive Cuckoo but I could be wrong also. Could be some kind of flowerpecker?

Thanks for the help.

Maybe Red-eyed Bulbul?

I have googled just now, it is very highly Red-eyed Bulbul as you mentioned, based on the color, body size and its eye iris color. Didn't realise could see this bird at this park.

Thank you again Andy.

Agree with Andy.
