Ashy-fronted Bulbul (Pycnonotus cinereifrons)
About the Ashy-fronted Bulbul
The ashy-fronted bulbul (Pycnonotus cinereifrons) is a member of the bulbul family of passerine birds. It is endemic to Palawan in the Philippines. Its natural habitat is tropical moist lowland forests. Until 2010, the ashy-fronted bulbul was considered as a subspecies of the olive-winged bulbul. It was formerly conspecific with the olive-winged bulbul but differs by its paler bill, gray-flecked forecrown, grayish white and pale belly and olive brown (instead of green) back, wings, tail and rump and different voice. Not much is known about its diet but it is presumed to be the typical generalist diet of fruits, insects and flowers.
