The Solomon Cicadabird is a species endemic to the Solomon Islands, characterized by its relatively drab plumage which can vary slightly between sexes. It is an inhabitant of the forest canopy, where it primarily feeds on insects.
Where to spot
Exclusively found in the Solomon Islands, where it inhabits primary and secondary forests, as well as disturbed woodland areas. It typically stays within the mid-to-upper canopy.
How to spot
Focus on the mid to upper canopy layers of mature forests. Look for subtle movements among the leaves. Its calls, which are typical of cicadabirds (often buzzing or trilling), can help in locating it.
When to spot
Can be observed throughout the year within its island range. Like many forest birds, it is most active and vocal during the cooler parts of the day, particularly early mornings.
