Spotted
The White-naped Lory is a large, striking parrot endemic to New Britain, an island in the Bismarck Archipelago. It is characterized by its rich red body, black wings, and a distinctive white patch on the nape.
Where to spot
Lowland and hill forests of New Britain, Papua New Guinea.
How to spot
Look for large, brightly colored parrots flying rapidly overhead or foraging in the canopy. Their loud, screeching calls are a good indicator of their presence.
When to spot
Year-round, active during daylight hours.
This lory's bright coloration serves as a warning to potential predators, indicating its strong, unpalatable taste, a common adaptation in brightly colored birds.
