Foja Honeyeater
Melipotes carolae Beehler, BM; Prawiradilaga, DM; de Fretes, Y; Kemp, N 2007
The wattled smoky honeyeater or Foja honeyeater is a species of honeyeater with a sooty-grey plumage and a black bill. The most distinctive feature is arguably the extensive reddish-orange facial skin and pendulous wattle. In other members of the genus Melipotes, these sections only appear reddish when "flushed" and the wattle is smaller. Source: Wikipedia
