      Apologies for the blurriness, spotted 4 of them in the Fragile Forest biodome.

      @Casuarius_casuarius Should it be Cissa chinensis instead? Fragile Forest is becoming a mini bird park! Other recent additions to the biodome include wonga pigeons and Sulawesi ground doves.

      @Zooish My bad. I was with Buceroskeeper yesterday, and C. h. concolor was our initial verdict based on the plumage colour scheme.
      Nonetheless if I am indeed mistaken, I'll upload the image again with the correct species ID.

      @Casuarius_casuarius If they're surplus birds from Jurong, then it should be C.chinensis. Also C.hypoleuca are extremely rare in captivity.

      The birds in the Zoo are Cissa chinensis, 3 sisters hatched at Jurong by one of the 2 pairs housed there.
