About the Camiguin Bulbul
The Camiguin bulbul (Hypsipetes catarmanensis) is a species of songbird in the bulbul family, Pycnonotidae. It is endemic to the Philippines being only found on Camiguin. The Camiguin bulbul was formerly considered a subspecies of the yellowish bulbul (Hypsipetes everetti), but more recent studies have found it to be a distinct species. It is described as a large, brown bulbul with a yellowish tint. It is differentiated from the yellowish bulbul as it is generally darker and has drabber yellow coloration. Also has a larger bill. It is differentiated from the formerly conspecific yellowish bulbul by its darker plumage, especially its crown. It also has significantly longer wings and a large bill. Both males and females are alike in shape and plumage but males are slightly larger.
