Spotted
The Utupua Whistler is a critically endangered and poorly known bird endemic to Utupua Island in the Solomon Islands. Its survival is severely threatened by habitat loss.
Where to spot
Endemic to Utupua Island in the Santa Cruz Islands, Solomon Islands. Found in small, fragmented patches of remaining primary forest.
How to spot
Due to its rarity, identification relies on a combination of visual cues (likely drab plumage, similar to other small whistlers) and unique vocalizations, which are often the best way to detect elusive birds.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Observations are extremely rare, but like other whistlers, it is likely most active in early mornings and late afternoons.
This species' extreme rarity makes every observation vital for understanding its biology and guiding urgent conservation efforts.
