  1. A truly bizarre bulbul, and its name aptly illustrates that. I've never seen another member of that family with a similar bill! Posted 6 years ago, modified 6 years ago

The collared finchbill is a species of songbird in the bulbul family, Pycnonotidae. It is found in China, Taiwan, and Vietnam.

The species favors forested hills at moderate elevations. Primarily a frugivore, the collared finchbill also eats seeds and insects. The birds are typically monogamous, with females building nests in trees in which to lay their eggs.
