The oldest is called angklung angklung Gubrag.Tak only in West Java, this instrument is also found in several regions in Indonesia such as Bali, Madura and Kalimantan.

Angklung began known by the public at the time of the Sunda kingdom. It used to serve as an encouragement at a time of war. This continues until the colonial era in Indonesia nation's natural.

The music in it was largely inspired from Nyai Sri Pohaci (goddess of rice) or often called Goddess Giver of Life. Because the myths that developed in the community first and then the artists create a kind of poetry and song as a tribute to Sri Nyai Pohaci through this angklung art.

At the time of emergence, the actual musical instrument Angklung is regarded as sacred because of its presence to accompany Spells - spells that in alunkan when certain rituals. This changed since 1938, Angklung Daeng Soetigna creates an underlying Diatonic sound. Since then Angklung be closer to the arts than the field of mystical and occult.

Angklung thrilling. 

Angklung is vibrated in the long rung with the appropriate value of the tone being played.

Dotted ring a, Beaten (Centok). 

Angklung is not vibrated, it struck the tip of the tube base (horizontal) by his right hand to produce centok (like the sound of blows). It is useful to play a short tune as a sign of pizzicato music.

Angklung is pronounced with a long pulsed tones are played according to the value, but not as small tubes usually covered by one finger left hand so it does not sound (which sounds just great tube only). It is intended that can be produced more subtle tones within their music needs to be played (eg to mark the dynamics of the piano).

Disconnected. 

As presented by the teacher Mr. Daeng Angklung diatonic Soetigna, then it is advisable to ring tone angklung is disconnected. This is done with the following techniques: if there are two notes played consecutively, so that the audible tone is sounded disconnected it first sounded slightly longer than the value of its tone, so that when the second tone starts playing, the first tone still sounds a little, so that the strains of the tune sounds disconnected and not drop out.

Dynamics (loud and soft). 

As per the needs of the song, angklung can be played softly (piano) over loud (forte). It is recommended for both types of dynamics should be the frequency of vibrations per second angklung remain the same in number, whereas different is the distance angklung swing by the right hand which in turn will determine the amplitude of vibration and cause hard or softly lnada played.

Sangihe red shrimp.

burung udang merah.
Sangihe-red shrimp, bird endemic to Sulawesi, including one new bird species are set in the Red List 2014.

King-type small-sized shrimp that lives only on the island of Sangihe and Talaud officially set to be a new bird species in the study of bird species in Indonesia issued by the IUCN and BirdLife International in 2014.

According to a press release received by National Geographic Indonesia on Friday (12/9), this study, conducted nature conservation organization BirdLife International which has 120 partners around the world, adding to the wealth of bird species in the world a kind 10 425 (ten percent more).

The addition of 361 bird species not-petengger (non-passerine) is now recognized as a new species. Some types are from Southeast Asia, including Indonesia.

"Based on this study in Indonesia there is the addition of at least 48 species that are the result of the separation of pre-existing types, as well as the addition of new types of findings," said Jihad, Bird Conservation Officer in Burung Indonesia, which is a non-profit organization BirdLife International partner in Indonesia .

One of the new types defined in the shrimp-red Sangihe or Ceyx sangirensis. Birds endemic to Sangihe Island, North Sulawesi was originally included in the type-red shrimp, Sulawesi Ceyx fallax. Unfortunately, unlike his cousin in Sulawesi, which has not been categorized as endangered, shrimp-red Sangihe currently threatened with extinction.

Note last encounter this kind was in 1997 and since then has not been recovered. Indonesian Bird Survey in Sangihe Island in 2004-2006 and in 2009 did not successfully meet this kind. A brief look at the Forest Sahendaruman in 2014 also failed to find a shrimp-red Sangihe.

Based on these facts, the study of the Red List 2014, bird inhabits lowland primary forest is designated as a Critical types. That is, this type of one step closer to extinction if no conservation measures as soon as possible.

In Sangihe, lowland primary forests is running out. However, allegedly shrimp-red Sangihe still survive in wooded valleys that are not affordable even in very small amounts.

Because the results of the study were submitted to the IUCN has raised the importance of the preservation of some bird hotspots (areas rich in bird species) that conditions have been threatened.

Sangihe is an important area for endemism and keterancaman because it has a lot of unique types that are not found anywhere else in the world, as well as the type of rare endangered. "Such areas have been designated a priority conservation world, and are in need of immediate conservation action to protect habitat and future critical birds such as shrimp-red Sangihe," said Agus Budi Utomo, Director of Burung Indonesia.

Java.
In Java, a new type of trigger is recognized as the gold Chrysocolaptes strictus-backs (Vulnerable) and king-prawn-blue necklace Alcedo euryzona (Critical) indicates that the world's most populous island is also home to a number of unique types. However, the density of population and the loss of natural habitat on the island is becoming a threat to the existence of new types.

King-prawn-blue necklace is currently recognized as endemic types of Java. While there are similar types in Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra and Borneo which originally also included in the same type, is now given a new name: king-prawn Alcedo peninsulae peninsula.

"Red List is not only important to help identify the types that need restoration efforts, but also to focus conservation plan by identifying the locations and the key habitats that need to be preserved, including the Important Bird Areas and Important Areas for Biodiversity," said Dr. Stuart Butchart, BirdLife Head of Knowledge science.

Red List of renewables will continue to assist in setting conservation priorities and funding in the future. Thank you for reading this article. Written and posted by Bambang Sunarno. sunarnobambang86@gmail.com

Java lathe increasingly rare bird.


Bird lathe.
If you look at the physical appearance of birds lathe java / Javan Coucal (Centropus nigrorufus), you might think of bird species including predators such as hawks. Although red eyes, with a large body posture, and form part grim, Java is not the type lathe raptors or birds of prey. These birds are insectivorous and are included in the family Cuculidae. What kind of bird condition lathe java today?

Birds lathe Java is endemic birds on the island of Java. Great posture, with a length of about 46 cm. Shiny black body color, ranging from head, back, beak, legs, and tail. Only the wings are red-rust, and red iris.

Java Tool females have larger body size than males. But regardless of sex of birds is still difficult, if there is no comparison of two different types of birds. Because the physical appearance of male and female birds are relatively the same.

Despite the frightening appearance such as predatory birds, with a strong beak and large, lathe Java is insectivorous birds. Insects such as grasshoppers preferred, large butterflies, caterpillars, crickets, beetles, and dragonflies.

In addition to insects, they also like snails, centipedes, bird chicks, frogs, small snakes, to small rodents like mice. In the wild, Java lathe not coexist with other lathe bird species, due to differences in habitat.

Breeding bird java lathe. 

Based on the results of the 1997 study, bird breeding season lathe java occurred in January and March. They will nest in a nest that was built using the leaves of the fern (Acrostichium) located on the edge of a river or swamp.

Nests are usually placed about 3-6 feet above the water at mangrove forest. There are differences in the data on the number of eggs produced by the female bird java lathe.

According to Bartels & Hellebrekers, the female parent only produce 1-3 eggs in each spawning period (clutch). However, according to Birdlife International, the number of eggs of this bird can reach 3-5 eggs per clutch.

If the opinion of Bartels & Hellebrekers true, then this is one reason why The World Conservation Union (IUCN) now incorporate lathe Java to the list of endangered birds, with the status of Vulnerable (Vulnerable).

Admittedly, most of the endemic birds on the island of Java facing life's problems are very crucial. The rapid pace of development in Java, surpassing other areas, making millions of hectares of the forest area lost due to land conversion, and destruction unresolved.

As a result, residents generally endemic bird loses its natural food source, and most of the dead. When the rate of population growth of Java lathe is very low, only 1-3 spawn points (Bartels & Hellebrekers version), would further reduce the number of populations in the wild.

Unfortunately, cases of illegal hunting is also one of the causes of the depletion of the population of Java lathe. Worse, poaching is not to meet the bird market. Not much chirping mania that has Java lathe at home. Then, to what this bird hunted and arrested?

Apparently, the bird lathe Java (also other types of lathe) arrested not to be maintained, but rather to take the oil. That said, this lathe oil is believed to have medicinal properties, particularly helpful in the healing of broken bones.

That makes us more sad, the manufacturing process requires a lathe oil herbal leaves in wild birds lathe was used instead of Java in building the nest. So, the bird decoy bird not only take it, but also the nest.

Various conditions were not conducive bird makes the existence of Java lathe increasingly rare in its habitat, both in the mangrove forests (mangroves) and marsh vegetation in northern and southern coast of Java.

Currently, Java lathe bird can only be found in limited quantities in Ujung Kulon, Indramayu, Karawang, Segara Puppies (Cilacap), Muara Brantas, Lumajang, and Semarang.

This bird even more difficult to find in Jakarta. As the depletion of open green areas in the capital city, is also diminishing bird populations lathe Java (also kites). Lathe only remaining Javan Muara Angke Conservation Area, it continues to shrink due to poaching and the slow regeneration of mangrove forests, water pollution, and development pressures around the conservation area.

In some bird markets in Java, sometimes we still can find birds lathe, but of another type of lathe reeds (Centropus bengalensis) and a large lathe (Centropus sinensis).

Birds big lathe and lathe reeds have a more secure populations, because the area is not limited distribution in Java, but also in Sumatra (including Nias and Mentawai), Borneo, and Bali.

Some fans are definitely interested in nurturing exotic bird bird lathe, regarding types of raptors. Most of the songs of mania may also curious about the sound of the booms, so that they were lured to buy when the bird saw it in the market.

However, many of them were disappointed. Therefore, after a few days maintained, bird character is not at all like a hawk. Even her voice is less pleasing to the ear, thus released into the wild.

Hopefully after reading this article, no more chirping of exotic birds mania and enthusiasts who want to buy a bird lathe, lathe either Java, a large lathe, or lathe reeds. Leave them in the wild, because it's useless maintained.

Better we choose a bird that has a clear voice booms, and popular among the chirping of mania, and hopefully buy them from breeding in their respective areas.
