Where to spot
Endemic to the lowland rainforests of northern New Guinea, particularly along the coast and lower slopes.
How to spot
Look for its small size and green plumage, with males identifiable by their blue throat and red breast patch. Listen for its high-pitched, soft calls that are easily missed.
