Tentang

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.
