Found in urban areas, parks and secondary forest.

A very distinctive yellow bird of parks, gardens and open area.

To photography this bird has been difficult-they are so canny that they can see you far off or if you are close they hide behind branches.Beautiful bird.This bird is a resident just across the road from my practice where 18yrs ago i planted 7trees around the playing field so that school children...
