Spotted
The Seychelles White-eye is an endangered species endemic to the Seychelles islands. It is a small, dull olive-green bird with a faint white eye-ring, clinging to survival in fragmented habitats.
Where to spot
Found on a few islands in the Seychelles, primarily on Mahé, Conception, and Thérèse, inhabiting native broadleaf forests.
How to spot
Look for small, olive-green birds with a subtle eye-ring, foraging in the canopy and mid-story of native forests. They are often elusive but can be located by their soft, melodic calls.
When to spot
Active year-round, with increased vocalization during the breeding season. Best observed in the early morning.
