Primarily found in mangrove forests, but also in adjacent riparian woodlands and swamps, across coastal northern Australia, New Guinea, and Southeast Asian islands.
How to spot
Search in mangrove environments, looking for its distinctive large bill and duller plumage. Listen for its characteristic loud, clear, and far-carrying whistled song.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours. Its calls are often heard during the breeding season.
