Red-vented
Bulbul
(Pycnonotus cafer)
This bird was first seen on Oahu only 50 years ago (1950's) when it
was reported as an unauthorized cage release. Now it's quite common on
Oahu.
One problem with the bulbul is that it likes to eat everything from insects
and lizards to many fruits and orchid buds, making it an agricultural
pest.
