Where to spot
Endemic to the highlands of New Guinea, primarily found in montane rainforests and moss forests, favoring the understory and mid-story.
How to spot
Scan the lower to mid-canopy of montane forests. The male's blue cap is unmistakable. Listen for its soft, melodic calls, which can help in locating it.

Resident year-round. Most active during early morning and late afternoon when foraging. Its beautiful colors are best seen in good light.
The intensity of the blue on the male's cap can vary with light conditions, sometimes appearing iridescent, making it a truly captivating sight.
