The Mimic Honeyeater is a common and widespread honeyeater found in New Guinea and parts of northern Australia, characterized by its plain, yellowish-olive plumage.
Where to spot
Lowland and hill forests, forest edges, mangroves, and gardens in New Guinea and the Cape York Peninsula of Australia.
How to spot
Look for it foraging actively in the mid to upper canopy. Listen carefully to its calls for any mimicked sounds. Its plain appearance means relying on behavior and vocalizations for ID.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, often more vocal in the early mornings.
