Spotted
The Large-billed Bush Warbler is a small, robust scrubwren endemic to the montane forests of New Guinea. It is characterized by a relatively large bill for its size and plain olive-brown plumage. This species is often found foraging quietly in the dense undergrowth or on the forest floor, using its bill to probe for insects.
Where to spot
Endemic to the montane forests of the central highlands of New Guinea, typically at elevations between 1,200 to 3,000 meters.
How to spot
Look for its plain appearance and relatively large bill. Listen for its soft, often whistled or churring calls. It is generally secretive, so patience is key when scanning dense undergrowth.
When to spot
Observable year-round within its montane forest habitat. Active during daylight hours.
Its preference for higher altitudes distinguishes it from some of its lowland relatives, adapting to cooler montane environments.
