Description wikipedia

The eastern hooded pitta (Pitta novaeguineae) is a passerine bird in the pitta family Pittidae that is endemic to New Guinea and some of the small neighbouring islands. It is a green bird with a black head and chestnut crown. It forages on the ground for insects and their larvae, and also eats berries. It breeds between February and August, the pair being strongly territorial and building their nest on the ground. Incubation and care of the fledglings is done by both parents. It was formerly considered to be a subspecies of the hooded pitta, now renamed to the western hooded pitta.
