Spotted
The Red-eyed Bulbul is a distinctive species, named for its bright red iris, which stands out against its brown and olive plumage. It is a forest-dwelling bird, often seen in dense undergrowth.
Where to spot
Found in lowland rainforests and mature woodlands across the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo.
How to spot
Look for it in the mid-to-lower canopy of dense forests. Its red eye is a strong identification marker, but its preference for thick cover may require patience.
When to spot
Year-round, as it is a resident species in its native range.

The intensity of its red eye color is a key distinguishing feature and is particularly striking when observed in good light within its shaded forest habitat.
