Do you perhaps have any pictures of the Friendly Bush Warbler?

I knew the bush warblers as a group, but I had never heard of this species... I thought you were asking for a bush warbler, that is friendly :3

There are not a lot of clear images of this bird, apparently they can be somewhat secretive? Or perhaps not many people make it to Borneo to photograph this bird.

Friendly Bush Warbler (Locustella accentor), family Locustellidae, order Passeriformes, endemic to Borneo

Some of the birds in this family were once placed in the "old world warbler" family, Sylviidae, such as the Bush Warblers.

October 8, 2023 - Long-billed Bush Warbler (Locustella major) These bush-warblers are found on grassy slopes with bushes and grass and in alpine meadows, forest clearings, and cultivated areas in northern Pakistan, northwest India, and western China. Foraging alone in grass and scrub, they feed on insects but the specifics of their diet are not well known. They build deep cup-shaped nests from dry grass on or near the ground well-hidden in dense grass or roots. They are classified as Near Threatened by the IUCN due to habitat loss caused by logging and agricultural expansion.

"Skulky and secretive speciality of the Kontum and Dalat Plateaus, in Vietnam’s central highlands. Like other Locustella warblers, much more easily heard than seen: listen for its buzzy, repetitive “bizee, bizee, bizee, bizee”, typically given from within a dense clump of grasses or shrubbery. A patient birder, with some luck, may be rewarded with a brief glimpse of this elusive and range-restricted songster in its tangled haunts--a drab brown bird with a white throat and weak eye-ring. Formerly regarded as a subspecies of Russet Bush Warbler (and under which it may be listed under older field guides)."

October 21, 2022 - Spotted Bush Warbler (Locustella thoracica) Found in parts of central China and the Himalayas, these bush warblers live in scrubby thickets, reedbeds, wet meadows, and other grassy areas. Usually foraging alone on or near the ground in dense vegetation, they feed on insects. They build deep cup-shaped nests, that are sometimes domed, from coarse grasses and a few feathers, well hidden in grasses or ferns. Females lay clutches of three or four eggs.

First dinosaurs of the decade!

You heard me – today we got our first-described species of dinosaurs of the decade! Dinosaurs, plural, because there’s six of them.

Five of the new species are living birds, and all come from two islands in eastern Indonesia. They were described by a joint team of researchers from Indonesia and Singapore.

(Image: A map of Sulawesi and the surrounding islands, specifically highlighting Peleng and Taliabu.)

The Peleng Fantail, Rhipidura habibiei, differs from its closest relatives by having a darker tail, whiter throat, and different vocalisations. The researchers acknowledge that it has likely been known by locals for a long time, but was first noted by ornithologists in the mid 2000s.

The Peleng Leaf-Warbler (Phylloscopus suaramerdu) is not related to most North American “warblers” as you might think, but it is related to other eurasian leaf-warblers. It differs from its closest relatives by having a lighter throat, darker tail, and greyer face. It lives at elevations between 700 and 900m, and was first encountered in 2009.

The Taliabu Leaf-Warbler (Phylloscopus emilsalimi) is, as you might expect, a close relative of the Peleng Leaf-warbler; it lives on a different island, however, and has a much yellower underside and different song. It lives at elevations of 700-1400m, and may also live on the neighboring island of Mangole.

The Taliabu Grasshopper-Warbler (Locustella portenta) is not, as you might think, a super close relative of leaf-warblers, because bird taxonomy is never easy. It is, however, a relative of grass warblers, and it differs from its closest relatives mostly in its song, though it’s also darker than its relatives. It’s a very secretive animal, and is only known from elevations of 1000-1400m. It’s likely to be endangered due to deforestation.

The Taliabu Myzomela (Myzomela wahe) is the last new bird species described in this paper, and also the most colourful. The bright red male is shown above; the female is more drab in colour. It is a honeyeater, and the male differs from its closest relatives by being brighter red on the head, paler grey on the butt, and lacking yellow stripes. It’s not known how the female differs from its relatives.

Alright wise gal, you’re probably thinking, sure those are dinosaurs, but you know why I’m really here. Are you just gonna give me some stinkin’ birds? Is that what will go down in history as the first dinosaurs of the decade??

(Image: Fossil vertebrae)

Fear not, dear reader, for also published today was a new mesozoic theropod, Yunyangosaurus puanensis, coming to us live (er, dead) from the middle Jurassic of Chongqing Municipality, China.

��It’s known only from a few vertebrae and ribs, but the material that we have is complete enough to show that it’s distinct from its closest relatives. It seems to be a tetanuran theropod, possibly a megalosaur, and likely would have looked something like this: 

(Image: Gasosaurus, a theropod dinosaur from a similar region of the dino family tree. It’s a bipedal meat-eater with a chunky skull and stout forearms. Yunyangosaurus probably looked very similar to this, but we don’t have enough material to depict it accurately.)
