Spotted
The Olive-headed Oriole is a subtly beautiful bird endemic to the Taliabu and Mangole islands in Indonesia. Unlike many orioles, it lacks bright yellow, having more muted olive and grey tones.
Where to spot
Endemic to Taliabu and Mangole islands in the Sula Islands, Indonesia. Inhabits primary and secondary lowland forests.
How to spot
Look for its olive-green upperparts, grey head, and duller yellowish-grey underparts, lacking the bold patterns of other orioles. Listen for its typical oriole-like fluty whistles, though possibly softer.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active in the early mornings and late afternoons when foraging and vocalizing.
