Olive-brown Oriole is quite similar to the local Helmeted Friarbird but the male is less so, while on Timor, where the nominate race of this oriole occurs, the female is again quite similar to the Helmeted Friarbird but the male is not. In Australia, however, where both the Olive-backed Oriole and the Green Oriole overlap in range with the Helmeted Friarbird, there is no mimicry. It seems clear that the orioles mimic the friarbirds, rather than vice versa. More
