Spotted
The Biak Gerygone is a small, secretive warbler endemic to the island of Biak in Indonesia. It is a specialist of the island's unique forest ecosystems.
Where to spot
Restricted to the forests of Biak Island and possibly some satellite islands off the coast of New Guinea.
How to spot
As an island endemic, observation requires visiting Biak. Search in dense forest undergrowth and canopy. Listen carefully for its unique calls, as it can be quite elusive within the foliage.
When to spot
Best observed during daylight hours, particularly in the morning when individuals are most active foraging and vocalizing.
