About Oriolus flavocinctus (King, 1826)
Oriolus flavocinctus (King, 1826), commonly called the green oriole or Australasian yellow oriole, is an inconspicuous bird that inhabits lush tropical vegetation across Australia and New Guinea. This species is often hard to locate, because its yellow-green plumage blends into surrounding foliage, and only its deep, bubbling, musical calls can be easily heard. Despite this, green orioles are common in suitable habitats, which include rainforests, mangroves, thickets along watercourses, swamps, and lush gardens. Green orioles forage slowly and methodically through the middle and upper layers of dense forests, and they primarily eat fruit. They are typically found alone or in pairs, but will sometimes form small flocks during the nonbreeding season.
