关于

The Black-faced Monarch is an elegant flycatcher with gray upperparts, a black face and throat, and warm rufous-orange underparts. It breeds in rainforests and wet sclerophyll forests of eastern Australia, migrating north to New Guinea and nearby islands during the austral winter. It forages actively through the forest midstory, catching insects and spiders by sallying from perches or gleaning foliage.
