Description
Another species of Leafbird, Chloropsis hardwickii, known as Orange-bellied Leafbird also have a similar appearance in the family Chloropseidae. It can be found in montane forests from 1,000m above sea level upwards and mainly eat insects, some fruit and seed plants. This species was named based on the orange colour at their belly.
The males and females of Orange-bellied Leafbird can easily be differentiated, as the females are less colourful. Immature birds look like duller versions of the females. The male has a green body with yellow-tinged head, blue markings on the tail and its wings, an extensive black face and blue patch over the throat extending onto its upper breast, and orange underpart. The female is predominantly green except for the orange tone on its abdomen and under tail-coverts.
