Spotted
The Isabela Oriole is a critically endangered and poorly known bird endemic to Luzon Island in the Philippines. Its dark, cryptic plumage makes it incredibly difficult to spot in its forest habitat.
Where to spot
Endemic to Luzon Island in the Philippines, with confirmed sightings primarily from fragmented lowland forests in the northern part of the island.
How to spot
Its dark, almost uniform blackish plumage is a key identifier, though it is incredibly hard to see. Listening for its distinctive calls, if known, would be crucial for detection.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Due to its extreme rarity and elusive nature, any observation is noteworthy, typically in early morning or late afternoon.
This species is one of the rarest and least-known orioles in the world, with very few confirmed sightings in recent decades, highlighting its urgent conservation need.
