Spotted
The Dark Whistler is a somber-plumaged bird found in New Guinea and surrounding islands, characterized by its overall dusky appearance. It is a secretive inhabitant of dense forests.
Where to spot
Widespread across New Guinea and some satellite islands, inhabiting lowland and lower montane rainforests, often in dense undergrowth.
How to spot
Look for its uniform dark, dusky-brown plumage, often with a slightly paler belly. Listen for its strong, clear, and varied whistling song, which is often the best way to locate this elusive bird.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active during the day, particularly mornings and late afternoons, when foraging.
Despite its name, its plumage provides excellent camouflage in the shaded understory and mid-story of its forest habitat.
