- Risiko rendah
Bald black head, horn on its bill, and a call that sounds like a very opinionated drunk uncle. Beloved anyway.
- Populasi
- Population size not quantified; described as "fairly common to very common" throughout its range, but with a suspected decreasing trend (1-19% decline over three generations, driven by ~47.5% tree-cover loss within its mapped range); Extent of Occurrence ~2,640,000 km².
- Habitat
- Dry forests, eucalypt woodlands, coastal scrub, heathlands, wetland margins and wetter forest edges; also uses urban areas, gardens, and arable/agricultural land; elevation range 0-1,650 m
- Fakta menarik
- The Noisy Friarbird gets its name from its raucous, cackling calls — often rendered as "four o'clock" or "tobacco" — which large feeding flocks produce loudly enough to fill an entire forest with sound; it also sports a bare black head with a distinctive bony knob (casque) at the base of its bill.
- Sebaran
- Eastern Australia (from around Lakes Entrance/Murray Valley in Victoria north through New South Wales and Queensland to Cape York) and the Trans-Fly region of southern New Guinea (Indonesia/Papua New Guinea)
