Birdtober 9: Juvenile - Javan Hawk-Eagle. A special favourite because I based my first D&D/TTRPG character on this species! (Drawings and irl photos below)

Birdtober 8: Nocturnal Migrant - Plaintive Cuckoo. Inspired by how this is a bird never seen but always heard! (quoted from the merlin bird app) (it's true)

Birdtober 7: Basic Plumage - Small Minivet. I've only seen these guys once irl. They were flying in a flock and looked like small flames blinking past 🔥

Birdtober 6: Coniferous Forest - Oriental Bay Owl. These little guys dance when you pet them, for some reason! I'll put a video below.

Here it is! Saw these guys with other owls in Yogyakarta, I think. Apparently farmers keep owls to help keep mice out of their fields.

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

Birdtober 5: Spotted - Spotted Dove. These tiny doves are a staple of Jakarta neighbourhoods, just like pong-pong trees! (disclaimer i've never seen one stand on a pong-pong fruit/seed tho)

This was in Camp Leaky, Borneo! The guy's still a juvinile, so he has no long tail yet. Btw I drew the ceplok batik motif in the back because 1. birds are common batik motifs 2. ceplok is what we call sunny side-up eggs LOL

Birdtober 4: Extravagant tail - Blyth's Paradise-Flycatcher. It used to be lumped into Asian Paradise-Flycatcher with other species until a species update in 2015! I also saw this fella in the wild (video below)

As an Indonesian, I'd love to hear something on the Javanese scale on a dulcimer! I think it'll sound really interesting
