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) 1. Northern Lapwing Mountain Peacock-Pheasant Greater Green Leafbird (one male - unsigned) 2. Blue Ground Dove (only males) Crested Wood Partridge (Roulroul) Greater Green Leafbird (one female - unsigned) 3. Bush Stone-Curlew Amazonian Motmot (signed as M. momota) 4. Blue Ground Dove (only females - unsigned) Hildebrandt's Starling White-lined Tanager Green Broadbill Mountain Peacock-Pheasant (unsigned) 5. Red and Yellow Barbet Gouldian Finch Cut-throat Finch Java Sparrow European Goldfinch (signed but not seen) Speckled Mousebird Crested Quail-Dove Collared Partridge (female - unsigned) 6. Collared Partridge Toucan Barbet (unsigned) 7. Tambourine Dove Lemon Dove Silver-eared Mesia (unsigned) Yellow Cardinal (unsigned) Crested Fireback (unsigned) 8. Toucan Barbet (unsigned) Mountain Peacock-Pheasant (unsigned) WETLAND AVIARIES (There have been a number of changes to species in these aviaries since lintworm's April 2019 species list) 1. American White Ibis Straw-necked Ibis Waldrapp (Northern Bald Ibis) Roseate Spoonbill Black-faced Spoonbill Hamerkop Nene (Hawaiian Goose) Eurasian Magpie Crested Mynah Long-tailed Mockingbird (I did not see any in this aviary, but I did see them in the Waterfall Aviary later) 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) Trumpeter Hornbill Northern African Grey Hornbill Southern Ground Hornbill Great Hornbill Papuan Hornbill Wreathed Hornbill (signed but I did not see them) Oriental Pied Hornbill (signed but I did not see them here) 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) Purple-naped Lory Black-capped Lory Yellow-bibbed Lory Coconut Lorikeet Rainbow Lorikeet Marigold Lorikeet Red-collared Lorikeet Brown Lory (listed by lintworm but I did not see signage for these species) Blue-streaked Lory (listed by lintworm but I did not see signage for these species) Chattering Lory (listed by lintworm but I did not see signage for these species) 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 Seychelles Magpie-Robin (unsigned - at the time I assumed it was a possibly wild Oriental Magpie-Robin; there is only one individual here) Chestnut and Black Weaver Golden-breasted (Royal) Starling (unsigned; one bird seen) Red-billed Blue Magpie BIRDS OF PREY 1. Philippine Eagle (not present on lintworm's visit) 2. Andean Condor (x 1) King Vulture (x 1) Turkey Vulture (x 5) JUNGLE JEWELS Aviaries at entrance: 1. Crowned Hornbill (did not see) Lemon Dove 2.

With regards to lintworm's list from April, White-lined Tanager and Red-fronted Barbet were added on the signage (and I saw them both), but Rosy-billed Pochard, Crimson-bellied Conure, Dusky Parrot, Red-fan Parrot (Hawk-headed Parrot), and Chestnut Weaver were no longer signed and I did not see any) *Southern Black-bellied Whistling Duck *White-faced Whistling Duck *Carolina Wood Duck *Common Shelduck (unsigned) Peruvian Pigeon White-crowned Pigeon Blue Ground Dove *Crested Quail Dove Olive Pigeon Dusky Turtle Dove *Malagasy Turtle Dove *Laughing Dove Blue-spotted Wood Dove Violet Touraco *Sun Conure *Blue-crowned Conure *Grey-hooded Parakeet *Red-fronted Barbet (not on lintworm's list from April) Golden-breasted (Royal) Starling Ashy Starling Chestnut-bellied Starling Violet-backed Starling *Red-crested Cardinal *Blue-grey Tanager Turquoise Tanager *Silver-beaked Tanager *White-lined Tanager (not on lintworm's list) *Saffron Finch Yellow-hooded Blackbird DINOSAUR DESCENDANTS 1.

There was also signage here for Magpie Goose (now in the Lory Loft aviary), Australian Pelican (now with the other pelicans), Spur-winged Goose and Great Cormorant (neither kept any more?). WATERFALL AVIARY (This species list is from the signage - I have put an asterisk next to the species I saw [about half the species]. The only unsigned species I saw in the aviary was Blue Peafowl. With regards to the signed species noted by lintworm from his April visit, the following species are no longer signed and were not seen here by me [although certain species were seen in other aviaries in the park]: Red Junglefowl, Timneh Grey Parrot, African Grey Parrot, Brown-necked Parrot, Nanday Parakeet, Goffin's Cockatoo, Western Plantain-eater, Asian Koel, Bearded Barbet, Laced Woodpecker, Greater Hill Mynah, White-rumped Shama) *Helmeted Guineafowl *Eastern Crested Guineafowl *Blue Peafowl (unsigned) *Sacred Ibis Roseate Spoonbill *Milky Stork *Masked Lapwing Senegal Parrot *Rueppell's Parrot *Red-bellied Parrot *Red-sided Eclectus Parrot Indian Ringneck Parakeet *Red-breasted (Moustached) Parakeet Monk Parakeet Dusky-headed Conure *Black-capped Conure African Green Pigeon Speckled Pigeon *Laughing Dove *Pied Imperial Pigeon *Western Crowned Pigeon *Diamond Dove *Eared Dove Collared Kingfisher (not on lintworm's list) Blue-bellied Roller Purple Roller European Roller *Oriental Dollarbird Von der Decken's Hornbill *Red-winged Starling *Superb Starling Lesser Blue-eared Starling Purple Starling Long-tailed Glossy Starling Emerald Starling Violet-backed Starling Greater Racquet-tailed Drongo *White-crowned Robin Chat Grey-headed Bristlebill Oriental Magpie Robin *Red-whiskered Bulbul Yellow Bishop *Village Weaver *Taveta Golden Weaver Blue-grey Tanager Red-crested Cardinal *Long-tailed Mockingbird Also (apparently present but unsigned, see post by Zooish later in the thread): Ring-tailed Lemur Azara's Agouti PARROT PARADISE Aviaries clockwise: 1.

One additional species not on lintworm's lists is Metallic Pigeon, of which there was a chick in an incubator in the rearing centre, with a sign saying that it was the first one hatched at Jurong. @Zooish might like to comment further on these lists.

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.

Wow! What an effort! Great list - some very nice surprises there, particularly the toucan barbets! Thanks Chli
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.
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.
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.
I haven't had any luck with Spix's on the two most recent visits (last 4 weeks). Until that time they were reliably at the top of the enclosure against the wire.
