The White-lined Honeyeater is a rather plain honeyeater found in New Guinea, named for the faint whitish line often visible below its eye. It is an inhabitant of submontane forests.
Where to spot
Submontane forests, typically at mid-elevations, and forest edges in New Guinea.
How to spot
Scan the mid-canopy of submontane forests. Its plain appearance can make it hard to spot, so look for subtle movements and listen for its calls. The faint white line below the eye is a key field mark if visible.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, often more visible during the cooler parts of the morning.
