Spotted
The Thick-billed Flowerpecker is a small, drab flowerpecker characterized by its relatively stout bill and plain grey-brown plumage, lacking bright markings. It moves actively through the forest canopy and edges.
Where to spot
Widely distributed across parts of South and Southeast Asia, inhabiting various forest types, plantations, and gardens.
How to spot
Look in the higher canopy of trees, especially where mistletoe or small berries are present. Its calls are often a series of rapid 'chip' notes, which can aid detection.
When to spot
Typically observed year-round, most actively foraging during the early morning and late afternoon hours.
This flowerpecker's diet includes a significant amount of mistletoe berries, and its sticky droppings help in dispersing the mistletoe seeds, making it an important ecological agent.
