The Mount Isarog Flowerpecker is a rare and localized flowerpecker found in the Philippines, characterized by its dark upperparts, pale underparts, and a red rump. It is an elusive species of montane forests.
Where to spot
Endemic to the Philippines, primarily found on Mount Isarog and other isolated peaks on Luzon and other islands, inhabiting montane forests.
How to spot
Requires dedicated hiking to its montane forest habitat. Look for it in the canopy, often in fruiting or flowering trees. Patience is key.
When to spot
Observable year-round, but very difficult to find due to its rarity and specific high-altitude habitat. Best efforts in the early morning.
