Dimorphic Jewel-babbler

Ptilorrhoa geislerorum

Least Concern

The Dimorphic Jewel-babbler is a terrestrial forest or shrubland bird that walks quietly on the ground for insects and seeds in New Guinea. It is usually resident, using dense cover or forest structure year-round and moving locally as food availability changes. Fun fact: many of these Australo-Papuan passerines are easier to detect by voice than by sight.
