About These Birds

Biak Monarch

The Biak Monarch is a near-threatened monarch flycatcher endemic to Biak and Numfoor islands in West Papua, Indonesia. It has black and white plumage typical of monarchs, with the male showing glossy blue-black upperparts. It inhabits forest and forest edges, and its restricted island range makes it vulnerable to habitat disturbance.

Bates's Paradise-flycatcher

Bates's Paradise-flycatcher is a small paradise-flycatcher of the family Monarchidae found in the forest understory of West and Central Africa. Weighing about 15g with a wingspan of 14.9cm, it has rufous and white plumage. It forages in the forest interior, making aerial sallies and gleaning insects from foliage.
