Spotted
The Obscure Honeyeater is a relatively plain, dark honeyeater found in the montane forests of New Guinea. Its subdued plumage helps it blend into the often dim forest interior.
Where to spot
Montane rainforests and mossy forests at higher elevations in New Guinea.
How to spot
Look for subtle movements in the mid to upper canopy of montane forests. Its plain appearance requires patience and a keen eye. Listen for its calls.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours.
Its preference for high-altitude, dense forests means it is often overlooked compared to more brightly colored honeyeaters.
