Black-collared Barbet

Black-collared Barbet
This brightly coloured barbet calls in a synchronised duet, with one bird calling 'two', followed immediately by 'puddley' given by its mate. At the same time the birds usually sway or bob up and down as they call.

These birds are common residents in well wooded areas and often come into gardens in urban areas where fruit trees offer a plentiful food source.
