Bird checklist for Enggano wanted (1 Viewer)

Hi,

Going to Enggano island a place off south-west Sumatra in just a week to meet relatives, family etc

Plans to do some birding while there, Enggano got lots of endemics, both subspecies and species and finding it intresting to see some of these.

I still havent been able to find any good lists on birds occuring on this Island, but I have gathered info from the net, books etc

This is what I know so far

Enggano scops-owl
Enggano myna
Enggano White-eye
Spotted dove?
Nicobar pigeon?
Pink-necked Green Pigeon
Thick-billed Green Pigeon
Green Imperial Pigeon
Mountain Imperial Pigeon?
Pied Imperial Pigeon
Emerald dove
Ruddy cuckoo-dove
hawk-eagle but whichone?
Enggano Thrush


Not a large list and aim happy if anyone could add some names on birds which occur here, and tell me if any of the above birds are in error, and dont occur on Enggano as several apparently havent been confirmed on Enggano yet and more based on speculations.

Thanks,
