Spotted
The Indigo Flycatcher is a small, vibrant bird where males display a beautiful deep indigo-blue plumage. Females are duller, typically brownish with blue tints on the wings and tail.
Where to spot
Endemic to the islands of Java and Bali in Indonesia, inhabiting humid montane forests, often in the undergrowth or near forest edges.
How to spot
Look for the male's distinctive deep indigo coloration. It can be elusive in dense foliage. Listen for its short, sharp calls and soft, whistled song to help locate it.
When to spot
A resident species, observable year-round. Most active in the early morning and late afternoon. Breeding season generally occurs during the local wet season.
