The Yellow-vented Bulbul, Pycnonotus goiavier, is a member of the bulbul family of passerine birds. It is resident breeder in southeast Asia from southern Thailand and Cambodia south to Borneo and the Philippines.
It is found in a wide variety of open habitats, but not deep forest. It is one of the most common birds in cultivated areas. They appear to be nomadic, roaming from place to place regularly.
The Yellow-vented Bulbul builds a well-camouflaged but fragile, loose, deep, cup-shaped nest from grass, leaves, roots, vine stems, and twigs. The nest is untidy on the outside, but it is neatly lined with plant fibers. it may be built in a wide range of places from low bushes to high trees. This is a species adapted to humans and may even nest in gardens. The Yellow-vented Bulbul lays 2-5 eggs in February to June.
The Yellow-vented Bulbuls eats berries and small fruits. They also sip nectar, nibble on young shoots, and take some insects.
Red-vented Bulbuls are a common introduced species considered detrimental to native birds. I didn't really have much time for bird photography while we were there; these are a couple of quick shots that I snapped on our last day. Not great, but the best I could do. Adding it to the Field Guide as a French Polynesia record.
The right vent just got done with an ash eruption, and brown dust from a rockfall to its right is rising to add to the mix.

My great-great-grandfather John Venters (1823-1863) lived at Oak Hill, Jackson CO, OH from about 1857 until his death in 1863. He joined the Army 5 Aug, 1861 as a Pvt in Co D, 36th Ohio Volunteer Infantry under Capt James Stanley and Colonel Crooks. He was appointed Sgt.at Marietta OH 27 Aug 1861 in "Roster of Ohio Troops", from the Official Roster of the Soldiers of the State of Ohio in the War of the Rebellion 1851-1866, Vol 3. Roster is also found on Internet at "36th Ohio Volunteer Infantry, Union Civil War Reg 1861-1865. (Complete info from the National Archives Military Records.)
John Venters saw action at Lewisburg VA, South Mountain MD, Antietam MD, and Chickamauga GA. He was also at 2nd Bull Run/Manasses. Although the 36th OVI was chosen to guard the General's HQ, they were very close to the actual fighting and were prepared to become involved if needed. John also served in the Tullahoma Campaign which occurred late June through mid-Sept 1863. This was not a battle, but a spectacular series of flanking maneuvers which drove the Rebel army through Tennessee to Chattanooga with a minimum of bloodshed. From today's standpoint, strategists label those maneuvers 'brilliant'. Between Antietam and Tullahoma, the 36th OVI was stationed in the Kanawha Valley WV, but saw no action there. Of the ten bloodiest battles of the Civil War, John was in three of them: 2nd Bull Run, Antietam and Chickamauga.
Of the three battles fought at Chattanooga TN in Nov 1863, John was wounded in Battle of Missionary Ridge (also referred to as Mission Ridge). "John Venter's regiment was attached to Baird's division which was aligned on the very left of the US advance on Missionary Ridge. He was in the same sector where the first breakthroughs of the C. S. line occurred. The 2nd MN is widely believed to have been the first unit to reach the top. John's unit was not far behind them when he met his unfortunate fatal gunshot wound." (From Dave Buckhout, Producer/Director of InHeritage).
This battle on 25 Nov, 1863 chased the Rebel army out of the territory, and set the stage for Sherman's march through Georgia. John died three days after that battle, 28 Nov 1863, at General Hospital #4 in Chattanooga TN. Chattanooga National Cemetery web site lists John Venters as being buried there in Section B, grave 591 with many other Civil War casualties. John is also listed on a monument to veterans in the Horeb Cemetery, Jackson Co OH: "A monument was erect May 1897 in honor of those who served their country" and his listing on the monument is "John Ventors, 36th Reg OVI, Co D".

A text, in english, from the site Birdlife Internacional, that is at the following address: www.birdlife.org/datazone/species/index.html?action=SpcHT...
White-vented Violet-ear (Colibri serrirostris)
This species has an extremely large range, and hence does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (Extent of Occurrence 30% decline over ten years or three generations). The population size has not been quantified, but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population size criterion (10% in ten years or three generations, or with a specified population structure). For these reasons the species is evaluated as Least Concern.

First time I've seen that type of new-flyer DE60LFR with those two small strange vents sandwiching the display screen. Does any one know why those vents are there?
