Spotted
The Streaked Melidectes is a large and distinctive honeyeater of New Guinea's montane forests, notable for its streaked plumage, particularly on the underparts.
Where to spot
Montane rainforests and forest edges at higher elevations in New Guinea.
How to spot
Scan the mid to upper canopy and forest edges. Look for its streaked plumage. Its size and robust bill can also help distinguish it from smaller honeyeaters. Listen for its calls.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours.
Like other Melidectes, it possesses a brush-tipped tongue adapted for nectar feeding, but also relies heavily on insects and small fruits.
