The Bismarck Boobook is a small owl species endemic to several islands within the Bismarck Archipelago of Papua New Guinea. Its distinct calls and plumage help differentiate it from other regional boobooks.
Where to spot
Endemic to several islands in the Bismarck Archipelago, Papua New Guinea, inhabiting lowland forests and wooded areas.
How to spot
Listen for its specific vocalizations after dark. Spotting it requires night-time searches with a spotlight in the forested areas of the Bismarck Islands.
When to spot
Nocturnal. Best observed by listening for its calls during the night.
The island geography of its habitat has led to the evolution of distinct populations, some of which may represent separate species.
