Green Catbird - Ailuroedus crassirostris. Male

The Green Catbird is found along the east coast of Australia, from south-eastern Queensland to southern New South Wales.

 

The Green Catbird is found in temperate and sub-tropical rainforest and paperbarks, and sometimes adjacent eucalypt forest.

 

The Green Catbird eats fruit, notably figs, flowers, and other plant material. It will also kill baby birds to feed its own young during breeding season and will eat small reptiles too. They usually feed in pairs or small groups, moiving from tree to tree in the mid to upper canopy.
