Spotted
The Rennell Whistler is a distinct and endemic songbird found only on Rennell Island in the Solomon Islands. It is a forest dweller, often found foraging in the canopy and mid-story.
Where to spot
Endemic to Rennell Island in the Solomon Islands. Inhabits lowland and secondary forests.
How to spot
Look for its overall olive-brown plumage, sometimes with a yellowish wash on the underparts. Identify it primarily by its strong, clear, and ringing whistled calls, which are a key way to locate it.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most vocal in the early mornings and late afternoons, characteristic of many whistlers.
Rennell Island is a raised coral atoll, and its unique geology and isolation have fostered the evolution of several endemic species, including this whistler.
