Spotted
The Yellow-faced Spiderhunter is a distinctive species with a long, decurved bill, and a yellowish face and underparts. It is found in mountain forests.
Where to spot
Endemic to the island of New Guinea, specifically found in montane forests and forest edges in the central highlands.
How to spot
Search for it in the mid-story and canopy of montane forests. The yellowish face and belly, combined with its long bill, are key identification features. Listen for its calls.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Best observed during morning and late afternoon when foraging activity is high. Look for it around flowering trees and shrubs.
Its 'yellow face' is a key distinguishing feature, making it stand out from other spiderhunter species in its range, many of which have plainer facial markings.
