Breeding Ecology of the Green Iora
Breeding behaviour of the Green Iora Aegithina viridissima is poorly known. Wells (2007) states that nests are neat cups. Both pair-members incubate and tend nestlings but incubation and fledging period unknown (Wells 2007; Wells 2020). I have had an opportunity to observe two Green Iora nests and report the observations here.
