The Ashy Robin is a small, elusive bird endemic to New Guinea's montane forests. It is characterized by its dull ashy-grey plumage with subtle olive tones, often blending seamlessly into its forest habitat.
Where to spot
Endemic to the montane rainforests of New Guinea, typically found at high elevations (above 2,000 meters), preferring the forest floor and undergrowth.
How to spot
Look for a small, dull greyish bird foraging on the forest floor. It often moves in short hops, pausing to look for insects. Its calls are typically thin and high-pitched, helping to locate it.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active during daylight hours, but often difficult to spot due to its cryptic coloration and skulking habits. Early mornings are best.
