Borneo is home to many spectacular birds - some of which are residents, while others are seasonal migrants from northern Asia.

Like the island’s mammals, Borneo’s bird wildlife is similar to that of peninsular Malaysia and Sumatra. The island’s lowland forests include 8 hornbill species, 18 woodpecker species and 13 pitta species, along with 2 species found nowhere else in the world (endemic): the black-browed babbler (Malacocincla perspicillata) and the white-crowned shama (Copsychus stricklandii).
