Passeriformes - Corvidae - Platysmurus leucopterus (Burung Temenggang)
Glossy black bird with a long tail, a heavy hooked bill, and a weak tuft of a crest. Also note the bright white stripe on the wing. Inhabits lowland and foothill forests. Moves in pairs and flocks, calling to keep in contact. Sometimes moves with mixed-species flocks. Quite vocal, giving a range of odd calls, including raucous and vibrant chatters given in series of varying speed, as well as hoarse rasping notes. Formerly grouped with Bornean Black Magpie under the more generic “Black Magpie.”
