The Spotted Monarch is a distinctive flycatcher endemic to New Guinea. It is characterized by its black and white spotted plumage, particularly on its head and wings.
Where to spot
Endemic to New Guinea, inhabiting lowland and hill rainforests.
How to spot
Look for its distinctive black and white spotted patterns, particularly on its head. Scan the mid to upper canopy of dense forests. Observe its active sallying for insects. Listen for its distinctive, often buzzing calls.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active in the early mornings and late afternoons, often foraging in mixed-species flocks.
The spots on its plumage help it blend into the dappled light of the forest canopy, providing camouflage while hunting.
