Where to spot
Endemic to the islands of Timor and Wetar in Southeast Asia, inhabiting dense primary and secondary forests, forest edges, and scrubland.
How to spot
Focus on dense undergrowth and mid-story of forests. Listen for its distinctive song, which can be a series of clear, whistling notes, and watch patiently for glimpses of movement.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active in the early mornings and late afternoons.
The 'buff band' on its plumage, though subtle, is a key field mark that helps distinguish it from similar species in its range.
