About These Birds
Arfak Catbird
The Arfak Catbird is a large bowerbird relative from the Arfak Mountains of New Guinea, weighing about 231 grams. Unlike true bowerbirds, catbirds do not build bowers; instead, males call loudly to attract mates with harsh, cat-like vocalizations. It inhabits montane forest, feeding on fruit and small animals in the canopy.
