Brown-capped Jewel-babbler

Ptilorrhoa geislerorum (Meyer, AB 1892)

The brown-headed jewel-babbler, also known as the dimorphic jewel-babbler or brown-capped jewel-babbler, is a jewel-babbler in the family Psophodidae. It is now usually considered to be distinct from the blue jewel-babbler, separated altitudinally and by varying behaviour, calls and female plumage. Source: Wikipedia
