Spotted
The Sulu Woodpecker is a small, endemic species restricted to the Sulu Archipelago in the Philippines. It features a dark, unpatterned back, pale underparts, and a red crown in males.
Where to spot
Endemic to the Sulu Archipelago (specifically Jolo, Tawi-Tawi, and Sanga-Sanga) in the Philippines, inhabiting lowland forests and mangroves.
How to spot
Due to its restricted range and potential rarity, dedicated birding in appropriate habitats is required. Look for its dark back and listen for its calls in the lowland forests and mangroves of the Sulu islands.
When to spot
Resident year-round within its very restricted island habitat. Active during daylight hours, often more visible in the mornings.
Its limited distribution makes it a species of conservation concern, highly dependent on the remaining forest fragments within the Sulu island group.
