BirdForum

Inhabits acacia and other types of open woodland as well as being seen in mangroves and forest. It can be distinguished from other similar species (eg the Western Black-headed Oriole or the Montane Oriole) by its greeny-olive central tail feathers and the yellowish edge of its inner secondaries. Where it is conspecific with other black-headed Orioles it tends to be restricted to the forest edge. Other names: Black-headed Oriole, Loriot masqué, Maskenpirol, Östlig svarthuvudgylling, Oriolo testanera
