Spotted
The Bornean Whistler is a subtly plumaged bird endemic to the island of Borneo. It is a forest dweller, often found foraging in the understory and mid-story of montane forests.
Where to spot
Endemic to the island of Borneo, primarily found in montane rainforests at higher elevations across the island's interior.
How to spot
Look for its olive-brown upperparts, often with a rufous wash on the underparts, and a relatively plain head. Identify it primarily by its strong, clear, and ringing whistled calls, which are a key way to locate it in dense forest.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most vocal during the early mornings and late afternoons, characteristic of many whistlers.
Its relatively plain appearance helps it blend into the dense forest, making its vocalizations a crucial tool for its detection by birdwatchers.
