Where to spot
Endemic to New Guinea and satellite islands, found in lowland and hill forests.
How to spot
Scan the mid-story and canopy of forested areas. Look for the contrast between its dark wings and body. Observe its active foraging for insects. Listen for its calls, which can be harsh or buzzing.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Active throughout the day, often more visible in the mornings.
This species often forages in the middle and upper levels of the forest, sometimes joining mixed-species flocks to exploit insect resources.
