Psilopogon rafflesii

Near Threatened

The Red-crowned Barbet is a stout-billed canopy bird of Sundaland lowland forest. It feeds heavily on figs and other fruit, also taking insects, and its ringing calls often reveal it before it is seen among leaves. Pairs nest in tree cavities that they excavate or reuse.
