Spotted
The Grand Bahama Bullfinch is a small, dark passerine bird, closely related to the Cuban Bullfinch and endemic to Grand Bahama Island. It is characterized by its entirely black plumage and a stout, conical bill adapted for seed-eating.
Where to spot
Endemic to Grand Bahama in the Bahamas, inhabiting various wooded and scrubby habitats, including pine forests and coastal coppice.
How to spot
Look for its uniform black appearance and sturdy bill. Listen for its distinctive, often repeated whistling calls and varied song. They are often found foraging in dense undergrowth.
When to spot
Observable throughout the year. Best activity is typically in the early morning and late afternoon.
Although appearing entirely black, under certain light conditions, a subtle reddish wash may be visible on the undertail coverts of some individuals, distinguishing it from truly uniform black birds.
