Timor Friarbird Philemon inornatus

A large brown honeyeater with a long, powerful bill, a lighter whitish underside showing fine streaks, and a squiggly white stripe below the eye. Juveniles show yellowish-green wing panel and yellow wash to throat and breast. Singles to small groups found in lowlands and foothills, within forest, edge, sparsely wooded areas, cultivation, and mangroves. Told from Helmeted Friarbird by smaller size, slimmer bill with no casque, and white line on face, lacking a large patch of facial skin. Noisy, giving a strident, kingfisher-like “kichup-chow.” Also gives an undulating “kichup-weee-chow-chow…”.
