Spotted
The Black Mannikin is a small, uniformly dark finch endemic to New Guinea. Its entirely dark plumage makes it appear rather unassuming.
Where to spot
Endemic to the highlands of New Guinea, inhabiting grasslands, cultivated areas, and montane forest edges.
How to spot
Look for its entirely dark, almost black, plumage. It is typically found foraging on the ground or clinging to grass stalks in grassy habitats.
When to spot
Can be observed year-round. They are often found in small flocks feeding on grass seeds.
