    JURONG BIRD PARK (25 Sept)


    This is a current species list from my visit on 25 September 2019.

    See the thread by @lintworm for his species list from April 2019 (Jurong Bird Park species list 2019 [Jurong Bird Park]).

    I actually wasn't going to post this list as lintworm's visit was only five months prior, but when I started typing it out I realised that there had been a substantial amount of changes in species on-show and in where species are housed. It's really quite remarkable how often birds seem to move on/off display at Jurong. However I have set out my lists in the same order as in lintworm's thread for ease of comparison, and I have made some comments in my list with regards to changes between his and my visits.

    In his thread lintworm noted that the signage was all quite new and up-to-date, but even so much of it appears to have been changed between his April visit and my September visit, as there were numerous differences in signed species.

    I have left the "off show" lists at the bottom as they were (with an additional note that Metallic Pigeon is now being kept) because I don't know how they may have changed. @Zooish may like to comment on these species (and any of the others).

    In the second post of this thread I have posted the species list by taxonomic groupings (rather than by which aviary the birds are kept in). On that list there are 385 bird species in total. That number includes the species present on my visit as well as the species listed by lintworm in April which were not signed on my visit, and the species listed by lintworm as being held off-show. If the latter categories are removed (comprising 74 species) then there were 311 species actually on-show (seen, or signed as being present) during my visit.



    PENGUIN COAST

    African Penguin (in an outdoor enclosure, separate from the other penguin species)

    Humboldt Penguin
    King Penguin
    Gentoo Penguin
    Macaroni Penguin (I only saw one)
    Southern Rockhopper Penguin (I only saw one)
    Silver Gull (I only saw one)
    ? Grey-headed Gull (on lintworm's list but I did not see any)

    [Formerly there had also been a second enclosure within the penguin house, with puffins etc, but this is now covered up]


    PHOTO OPPORTUNITY
    (Not mentioned in lintworm's species lists, situated just past Penguin Coast; the birds probably change constantly but on my visit these were the species present)

    Salmon-crested (Moluccan) Cockatoo
    Sun Conure
    Blue and Gold Macaw
    hybrid Macaw


    HELICONIA WALK
    (The inhabitants of these eight aviaries have all changed significantly since lintworm's April 2019 species list. Three species on lintworm's list which are no longer at the park are Nyasa Lovebird [now at the Singapore Zoo], Black-winged Lovebird, and Brown-throated Parakeet [both now at Singapore River Safari]. A number of the species in these aviaries were also segregated by sex - i.e. females in one aviary and males in another - presumably because of the upcoming move to a new location)

    Mountain Peacock-Pheasant
    Greater Green Leafbird (one male - unsigned)

    2.

    1.
    American White Ibis
    Straw-necked Ibis
    Waldrapp (Northern Bald Ibis)
    Roseate Spoonbill
    Black-faced Spoonbill
    Hamerkop

    2.
    Shoebill
    Boatbill Heron
    Abdim's Stork
    (For this aviary lintworm listed only Shoebill and unsigned Meller's Duck - I did not see the latter species anywhere; the Boatbills and Abdim's Storks arrived after his visit)

    3.
    (This aviary cannot be approached by visitors, only viewed from a distance. Lintworm listed Saddlebill and Painted Storks in this aviary, neither of which I saw anywhere in the park)
    Scarlet Ibis
    Asiatic Black-headed Ibis
    Black Stork
    Lesser Adjutant


    ROYAL RAMBLE
    (Note that for most of my day it was raining heavily, so for these particular aviaries I just noted down the species on the signage and did not linger long to try and see whether all the birds were actually present. There are a number of birds in lintworm's list which were not on the current signage)

    1.
    Hartlaub's Touraco
    White-cheeked Touraco
    White-crested Touraco
    Livingston's Touraco
    Bruce's Green Pigeon
    Wonga Pigeon
    [Lintworm additionally listed Golden-breasted (Royal) Starling, Madagascar Turtle Dove, Tambourine Dove, Violet Touraco, Common Bronzewing, West African Pied Hornbill, and Purple-crested Touraco - the latter three were not signed or seen anywhere in the park on my visit]

    2.
    Blue-faced Honeyeater
    Crested Pigeon
    Victoria Crowned Pigeon
    Luzon Hornbill (manillae)
    [This is the same species line-up as on lintworm's visit]

    3.
    White-shouldered Starling (S. sinensis)
    Lemon Dove
    Bar-shouldered Dove
    Island Imperial Pigeon (D. pistrinaria)
    Luzon Bleeding-Heart Pigeon
    [Lintworm additionally listed Von der Decken's Hornbill, Mountain Bamboo Partridge, and Brush Bronzewing - the last-named was not seen or signed anywhere on my visit]


    WINDOWS ON PARADISE
    (As with the previous set of aviaries, I noted down the species on the signage but did not spend too long checking for birds. I will note the species I actually saw in the aviaries. Also lintworm noted the presence of King Bird of Paradise and Twelve-wired Bird of Paradise in the aviaries behind the display aviaries [i.e. off-display but still visible])

    1.
    (Of these ones I only saw the bird of paradise and one of the imperial pigeons [not sure which one!])
    Red Bird of Paradise
    Pinon Imperial Pigeon (D. pinon)
    Blue-tailed Imperial Pigeon (D. concinna)
    Mountain Peacock-Pheasant
    Victoria Crowned Pigeon

    2.
    (Of these I saw the bird of paradise and the imperial pigeon)
    Lesser Bird of Paradise
    White Imperial Pigeon (D. luctuosa)
    Western Crowned Pigeon

    3.
    (Of these I saw the bird of paradise and the imperial pigeon)
    Raggiana Bird of Paradise
    Pink-headed Imperial Pigeon (D. rosacea)
    Wonga Pigeon
    Germain's Peacock-Pheasant


    HORNBILLS AND TOUCANS
    (I tried keeping note of these in order of aviary but because of the rain, and because species were present in multiple aviaries, and because of the presence of both current and out-of-date signage on aviaries, and because of the layout of the aviaries which makes a numerical ordering difficult ... I gave up and just wrote down all the species I saw. I have arranged the species in the same order as that of lintworm's list)

    Red-billed Blue Magpie (unsigned - not on lintworm's list)
    Helmeted Curassow (unsigned - not on lintworm's list)
    Great Curassow (unsigned - not on lintworm's list)
    [In the gallery @Zooish mentions Bare-faced Curassow also being kept in these aviaries but I didn't see that one]
    Vulturine Guineafowl
    Green Peafowl (unsigned)
    Blue-winged Goose (unsigned - these were moved to Singapore Zoo after my visit according to a post by Zooish later in this thread)
    Great Blue Touraco (signed but unfortunately I did not see them)
    Toco Toucan
    Red-billed Toucan
    Von Der Decken's Hornbill
    Western Long-tailed Hornbill (not on lintworm's list)

    Rhinoceros Hornbill
    Malayan Black Hornbill (signed but I did not see them)
    White-crowned Hornbill
    Polillo Island Hornbill (subniger)

    Bushy-crested Hornbill and Red-billed Hornbill were on lintworm's list but I did not see them here (in a later post in this thread Zooish says the latter species is now in the Lory Loft aviary). He also noted the presence of Wrinkled Hornbill off-show but visible.


    LORY LOFT
    (For the lories and lorikeets the list is from the signage - I didn't note which species I actually saw, and the presence of hybrids complicates the matter. There is also a block of lories listed by lintworm for which I did not see any signage. I note that there are some species which lintworm listed as not being signed (Pesquet's and Australian King Parrots) which now are signed, so the signage must have all been changed since his visit. For the other species on my list, they are a mix of signed and unsigned species, all of which I saw except the Blue-winged Kookaburra and Red-billed Hornbills which are apparently in there)

    Magpie Goose

    Western Crowned Pigeon
    Streptopelia sp. (unsigned)
    Plus another pigeon species I couldn't identify (both pigeon species were in the tops of the trees and difficult to see)

    Red Lory (listed by lintworm but I did not see signage for these species)
    Dusky Lory (listed by lintworm but I did not see signage for these species)

    Palm Cockatoo (listed by lintworm but I did not see signage for this species)

    Cornelia's Eclectus Parrot (lintworm has Solomon Island Eclectus listed for this aviary, but the current signage is for Cornelia's Eclectus which is from Sumba Island)
    Major Mitchell's Cockatoo
    Pesquet's Parrot
    Australian King Parrot

    Blue-winged Kookaburra (unsigned, did not see)

    Red-billed Hornbill (in lintworm's April list these were housed with the other hornbills; I did not see them at all but in a post later in this thread Zooish says they are now here in the Lory Loft aviary)

    Bearded Barbet

    This is all the species from the lists above, arranged in taxonomic groupings (rather than by which aviary they are in) so that it is easy to see what they have/had on show.

    I have included:
    A) all the species I saw or which were signed, as the signage all appeared to be recently-updated (based on lintworm's April visit).
    B) (most of the) species which were listed by lintworm as being signed or on-show on his April visit but not on mine, as it is likely most are still at the bird park, although perhaps not all currently on-show.
    C) the off-show species listed by lintworm.
    D) species photographed recently on-show (all from August).

    The species from the latter three categories above have all been annotated appropriately in the lists.

    There are 385 bird species in total listed here. If the latter three categories are removed (comprising 74 species) then there were 311 species actually on-show (seen, or signed as being present) during my visit.

    Is there not a callitrichid in an exihibit over the entrance to Jungle Jewels?

    I recall there being one last time I was there - was it Golden Lion Tamarins? But this visit both the entry aviaries were just aviaries for birds. No callitrichids were signed or seen.

    I think it might have been common or emperor, something with white on the face anyway.

    Thanks for the update, a shame that within months after I left Phillipine eagle and Toucan barbet go on show...

    With regards to the Adjudants, I am 100% positive that I saw Lesser adjudants back in April.

    Great effort to come up with the list! It's really hard to do a list for Jurong because the collection keeps changing (almost on a weekly basis). Many species being moved around the WRS parks (eg. Black-winged Lovebird and Brown throated parakeet are now at River Safari; Nyasa lovebirds and Namaqua doves at the Zoo; Nankeen herons and Eurasian spoonbills at Night Safari). At Jurong itself, African species have been moved to Lory Loft (starlings, small hornbills, weavers, barbets), while Jungle Jewels is now closed for a re-theme. Not sure what it will house when it reopens in late December. Puffins have been phased out.

    One more thing, there are 3 species of mammals on display at Jurong - Lesser mousedeer at Wings of Asia, and Ring-tailed Lemurs and Azara's agouti (I've personally not seen the agouti) at Waterfall Aviary.

    I'm told the Toucan Barbets arrived in April. The aviary which you noted as holding unsigned Fire-tufted Barbets is the one which is now signed for the Toucan Barbets (although they were in fact in the Heliconia aviaries on the day I visited).

    It could well be that they were Lesser and I wrote the wrong name down by mistake, although I would like to think I wouldn't have done that. I didn't take any photos of them (that aviary is well back from the visitor path) and they weren't on the signage. On the other hand, given the way Jurong moves its birds around, I also wouldn't rule out that they have both species.

    Indeed the pair at the Wetlands aviary are Lesser Adjutants.

    Thanks - I'll edit the list for those species.

    Did they die out? I read a post of yours from several years ago (from 2010 - I was trying to find when they left the park) and there were apparently 30 or 40 puffins in the exhibit.

    So in Lory Loft, the Bearded Barbet and Chestnut Weaver on my list would be correct? Sounds like I just got there in time to see Jungle Jewels again then.

    Are they signed? I only saw signage for birds. The only mammals I saw in the Waterfall Aviary were a Plantain Squirrel and a Common Tree Shrew (both wild free-loaders, of course).

    Well two for Lesser, so I'll change it on the list.

    @Chlidonias you can add blue-winged goose to the list of transfers - they are at the Zoo now.

    The puffin population was reduced gradually. There were about 8 on display before the exhibit closed. I think they were exported.

    Yes the bearded barbets and chestnut (or rather chestnut and black?) weavers are in Lory Loft. Along with Red-billed hornbill.

    The lemurs and agouti are unsigned.

    Also Metallic pigeons are in Wings of Asia now.

    A question which was bugging me when I was at the park, @Zooish - what happened to the Peruvian Pelicans? When they got those in a few years back they made a thing about having all the pelican species on display, but now they are gone (as are the Brown Pelicans which I think died of old age?).

    Why did you fail with the Spix macaws? Shut in or wouldn't come out? A disaster if that had happened to me...

    They never came out into the show aviary (from their indoor part). I went back several times during the visit and never saw them. My niece was there a few months before and she also failed to see them, and I know the same has happened to other people who wanted to see them. The birds they have - perhaps Spix's Macaws in general? - seem to be quite poor as display birds.

    However I did see the Lear's Macaws and Philippine Eagles which were my other two birds I particularly wanted to see, so two-out-of-three is not all bad.

    I had a rather similar experience with the ones at Paira Daiza in Belgium, the only other place they are on public display. I went specifically to see this species, after decades of wanting to see one. After two failed attempts to see them in the morning I was getting very nervous, but finally they were outside on show in the afternoon. I wondered if their non-appearance was somehow related to the temperature -but Singapore is hotter than Belgium.

    Impressive list and good job! But my brain can not stop thinking about the "Grey-necked Crowned Crane" and "Black-necked Crowned Crane" which I assume is Grey crowned crane and Black crowned crane?

    I'm not sure. They were down to one individual Peruvian sometime last year from 4 previously. Then both it and the Brown disappeared. I hope they were exported rather than had died.
