Spotted
Hoevell's Flycatcher is a rather plain-looking, grey-brown flycatcher with a pale eye-ring, found exclusively on the island of Sulawesi. It inhabits high-altitude mossy forests.
Where to spot
Endemic to the island of Sulawesi, Indonesia, specifically found in mossy montane forests at higher elevations.
How to spot
Requires patience due to its drab coloration and tendency to remain within dense foliage. Look for its active foraging behavior and pale eye-ring. Listen for its simple, high-pitched calls.
When to spot
A resident species, observable year-round. It is most active during the day, foraging for insects in the forest understory and mid-canopy.
Despite its subdued plumage, this species is a key part of the unique avifauna of Sulawesi's highlands, thriving in the cool, moist conditions of montane mossy forests.
