About These Birds
Black Fantail
The Black Fantail is a small, entirely jet-black fantail that enthusiastically fans its long tail while foraging. It inhabits montane rainforests of New Guinea, typically at elevations from 1,200 to 2,800 meters, where it is found in forest interior and dense undergrowth. It feeds on insects, catching them by sallying from perches or gleaning from foliage, often in mixed-species bird flocks.
Bismarck Fantail
The Bismarck Fantail is a small, active fantail endemic to the Bismarck Archipelago in Papua New Guinea. It has brown and white plumage and continuously fans and spreads its long tail while foraging. It inhabits forest undergrowth and edges, catching insects in quick aerial sallies.
