Spotted
The Long-tailed Cuckooshrike is a distinctive and large species found in New Guinea, notable for its exceptionally long tail. Its plumage is predominantly grey.
Where to spot
Endemic to New Guinea, typically found in primary and mature secondary lowland rainforests, often near forest edges or clearings.
How to spot
Look high in the forest canopy. Its long tail makes it easily identifiable, even from a distance. Listen for its clear, whistling calls.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours, often seen singly or in pairs moving through the canopy. It is a resident species, observable year-round.
Its remarkably long tail, which can be almost as long as its body, is a unique feature that aids in its agile flight through the forest canopy.
