Black-and-Red Broadbill - lV

 Passeriformes - Eurylaimidae - Cymbirhyncus macrorhynchos (Takau Hitam-Merah)

Utterly unmistakable inhabitant of waterside and riverine lowland evergreen forests, mangroves, and plantations. Midnight black with long white slashes on each wing, wine-red underparts, and a black chinstrap. Bulbous bill is glowingly powder-blue with warm tinges of orange and greenish-yellow. During the breeding season, the pendulous nests of this species can be quite obvious, hanging over forested waterways. Voice is nasal and generally unpleasant-sounding, consisting of odd low mechanical rasps.

Coaxing a chick to fledge the entire morning for five over hours (with the older one presumably fledged the day before).

Remove fecal sac

Both parents made repeated visits to the nest to coax the young out whilst not bringing any food; also called repeatedly from the background even as the young cried out ceaselessly for food.

Making beak contact with a hungry chick as another way to tease it out.

For what is it desired, for what is it eternal?
