The area is now a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, but back then Parman would raid nests for rare birds, taking fledglings before they had learned to fly, then raising them himself until they were old enough to sell.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost buyers came from outside the area, especially Yogyakarta and Magelang,\u201d Parman told Mongabay Indonesia in June, referring to the two nearest cities to his home in Donorejo village. \u201cThey\u2019d ask local people to catch them, and we\u2019d sell them \u2014 for a pretty good price.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The colorful Javan blue flycatcher (<em>Cyornis banyumas<\/em>), for example, used to be a common sight and sound here in the Menoreh Hills.<\/p>\n<p>But the species is now critically endangered, a sad reflection of the depth of Indonesia\u2019s songbird trade. Today, many more of these birds are held in cages than live freely in forests.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRemarkably, the population in captivity likely numbers in the tens of thousands, while the wild population is now suspected to number fewer than 1,000, and maybe much lower,\u201d notes the <a href=\"https:\/\/datazone.birdlife.org\/species\/factsheet\/javan-blue-flycatcher-cyornis-banyumas\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external\">most recent assessment<\/a> of the Javan blue flycatcher, published in 2022 by the IUCN, the global wildlife conservation authority.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt became really difficult to find birds here,\u201d Parman said. \u201cSo that\u2019s why we stopped, and chose to focus on raising goats instead.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But after Parman and his peers stopped hunting for the songbird trade, they found outsiders soon filled the vacuum, which prompted him to see these hills differently.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_327560\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/imgs.mongabay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/08\/27102726\/Lanskap-Menoreh_Arif-Rudiyanto-2-1200x800-1.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-327560\" src=\"https:\/\/imgs.mongabay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/08\/27102726\/Lanskap-Menoreh_Arif-Rudiyanto-2-1200x800-1.jpg\" alt=\"The Menoreh Hills landscape serves as a habitat for hundreds of bird species, including critically endangered ones like the Javan blue-banded kingfisher. \" width=\"1200\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imgs.mongabay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/08\/27102726\/Lanskap-Menoreh_Arif-Rudiyanto-2-1200x800-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/imgs.mongabay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/08\/27102726\/Lanskap-Menoreh_Arif-Rudiyanto-2-1200x800-1-768x448.jpg 768w, https:\/\/imgs.mongabay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/08\/27102726\/Lanskap-Menoreh_Arif-Rudiyanto-2-1200x800-1-610x356.jpg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Menoreh Hills landscape serves as a habitat for hundreds of bird species, including critically endangered ones like the Javan blue-banded kingfisher.
