About These Birds
Black-capped Catbird
The Black-capped Catbird is a bowerbird found in the rainforests of northern New Guinea and the Cape York Peninsula in Australia, with adults showing a distinctive black crown, green upperparts, and white-spotted green underparts. Unlike true bowerbirds, male catbirds do not build bowers and instead maintain long-term pair bonds. It feeds primarily on fruits and berries in the forest canopy.
Black-eared Catbird
The Black-eared Catbird is a medium-sized, stocky bowerbird with green upperparts, a spotted white-and-brown breast, and conspicuous black ear patches framing a pale face. It inhabits rainforests of New Guinea and northeastern Australia, staying close to dense undergrowth and forest edges. It feeds on fruits, berries, and occasionally invertebrates, and unlike most bowerbirds, it does not build a bower for courtship.
