Spotted
The Yellow-rumped Flowerpecker is a small, active bird, characterized by its dark upperparts, pale underparts, and a distinctive bright yellow rump patch. It is a denizen of forests and gardens.
Where to spot
Found across Southeast Asia, including Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei, and the Philippines, inhabiting forests, forest edges, and cultivated areas with flowering and fruiting trees.
How to spot
Look for it in the canopy of forests, orchards, and gardens, especially near mistletoe plants or fruiting trees. Its small size and quick movements require sharp eyes. The yellow rump is a key identifier.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Active throughout the day, often seen feeding in fruiting or flowering trees.

Flowerpeckers are vital for seed dispersal of mistletoe, as they eat the sticky berries and then wipe their beaks on branches, effectively 'planting' the seeds.
