Female Black Sicklebill in the Arfak mountains of West Papua yesterday. We watched the male displaying in the early morning gloom, performing ‘avian aerobics’ and ‘whiplash’ calling before disappearing into the lush montane forest @wisebirding.bsky.social

Arfak Ringtail Pseudochirulus schlegeli
The Arfak Ringtail Pseudochirulus schlegeli is a wide-eyed and bushy tailed #possum living in the remote Arfak Mountains and cloud forests of #WestPapua. Although little is known of these tree-dwelling #marsupials, much can be gleaned from related #mammals in Australasia. These cryptic and fluffy arboreal beauties are found in the mossy, cloud-wrapped forests of the Vogelkop Peninsula’s Arfak Mountains. Listed as #Vulnerable, the species faces mounting pressure from #deforestation for #palmoil and #timber and #hunting by local communities. With fewer than five known locations and less than 20,000 km² of suitable habitat, this highland #possum could disappear quietly without urgent action. Protect #indigenous forests, say no to palm oil, and stand up against wildlife exploitation #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife #Vegan

Feeling a little upside-down today with some kind of stomach bug, so here's another sketch vs final from the board game Birdwatcher - the upside-down courtship display of the male Arfak Astrapia. 🎨🐡🦉
Rough sketch of a displaying male Arfak Astrapia. He is hanging upside down from a lichen-covered branch, with his elegant graduated tail pointed toward the sky. A finished digital painting from the previous sketch, showing the Arfak Astrapia in vivid color and fine detail, with a blue throat, bronze line from eye to breast, a green belly, and fine barring on the tail feathers.

Working on some new profile pics. Which do you like best?

(1 & 6 are my favs.)

(Arfak Astrapia, Eremotherium, Deinocheirus, Splendid Astrapia, Hairy Nautilus, Thylacoleo, Asian River Dolphin & Colossal Squid)

#69: Obscure Berrypecker

If you see a strange bird pecking your berries, and also happen to be in the Arfak Mountains of New Guinea, this could be your bird.

Ik ben de vierde persoon ooit, die dit beestje heeft gerapporteerd (en de tweede die hem levend heeft zien vliegen). Beestje is de breedscheenjuffer Palaiargia ernstmayri, endemisch voor het Arfak gebergte. Slechts vier meldingen (inclusief de mijne) sinds 1928.

Bei dem den Waldboden aufräumenden Freak handelt es sich btw um einen Arfak-Strahlenparadiesvogel – und er gibt sich RICHTIG Mühe!

Brevirostruavis macrohyoideus
Arfak Astrapia
Green Tortoise Beetle
American Redstart

Details in alt text!
Digital illustration of Brevirostruavis macrohyoideus, an Enantiornithine bird with a large hyoid structure in the skull, likely to support a long tongue. Here this bird, with a toothy snout and clawed wings, a green back and dark brown head with red crown patch, is seen perched on lush foliage while licking up nectar and small insects from some of the first flowers to emerge in the Cretaceous. Arfak Astrapia illustration, from Birdwatcher (Oni Press). Males display to females as depicted here, by hanging upside down from a branch. The sunlight from above catches his vibrant iridescent green belly and makes it glow, while also highlighting his blue throat and orange collar. Green Tortoise Beetle commission for Franz Anthony. This beetle is illustrated on a bug-eaten leaf as it slowly walks downward. Sunlight shines off its reflective green and black shell. Illustration of an immature male American Redstart preening. He has his gray head twisted toward his fanned black and yellow tail as he sorts out feathers near his rump. The gray head and green back look similar to female coloration, but the small black speckles on his head indicate that he is actually a young male, now in his second year.
