Fan-tailed Berrypecker
Melanocharis versteri
Least ConcernThe Fan-tailed Berrypecker is a small New Guinea forest bird that feeds on berries, nectar, and tiny arthropods in foliage in New Guinea highlands. It is generally resident, using local forest, scrub, or woodland year-round and shifting within its range as food changes. Fun fact: this batch includes some of the most distinctive island lineages in the bird catalog, from toxic ifritas to display-rich birds-of-paradise.
