Spotted
The Fairy Gerygone is a tiny, often elusive warbler distributed across New Guinea and parts of northern Australia. It's known for its delicate build and often pale, almost ethereal appearance.
Where to spot
Occupies a variety of habitats including rainforests, woodlands, mangroves, and sometimes gardens, especially in tropical northern Australia and New Guinea.
How to spot
Look for its very small size and pale plumage, often with a slight yellow tinge. Listen for its delicate, high-pitched song, which is often repeated. It can be found foraging actively in the foliage.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, often more vocal during the breeding season.

Despite its small size, the Fairy Gerygone builds an elaborate, pendulous nest that hangs from a tree branch, skillfully woven from fine plant material.
