Myzomela chloroptera

The Sulawesi myzomela, Myzomela chloroptera, is a diminutive and vibrant member of the Meliphagidae family, gracing the Indonesian archipelago with its presence. This avian species is adorned with a striking plumage that exhibits sexual dimorphism: males typically boast a more vivid coloration compared to their female counterparts.

Identification Tips

When endeavoring to identify the Sulawesi myzomela, one should note the pronounced color differences between the sexes. Males are characterized by their more pronounced hues, which serve as a reliable indicator for identification in the field.

Additionally, it can be found in the subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, demonstrating its adaptability to different altitudinal zones.

The best bird logging app
Birda is honestly the best bird logging app I have seen. I love all the features it has from being able to do a session and log all the birds you see in one sitting, to being able to connect with other birders from all over the globe!

Really great app
It’s easy to use and it’s fun to log the birds you notice on a walk or just in your garden. There’s a option to record the birds you see in a session which is really nice. Good excuse to stop for a while and just watch birds. I am also enjoying the information part where you can find out fact about birds from all over the world.

A great app
Enjoying it immensely and finding it useful too. Recording the different birds and counting them is showing me how the present climate is affecting them all. I've trebled the numbers by planting native hedging. A great app.

Makes you want to spot birds more
I think this app is fun. It makes you want to spot birds more so I guess in a way it encourages you to get out and about instead of sitting in front of the TV.

Great app for beginner twitchers
I’ve had a passion of photographing birds for a long time now but have only just gotten into proper birdwatching, and this app is brilliant for those just getting started. There is a great sense of community among users and the app is very easy to use and professional. Awesome app altogether

Such a great app!
I didn’t think I could enjoy birding more but this app makes it so much better. Some great features and a really great way to share your sightings with your friends or fellow birders nearby or around the world! ❤️

Easy to use and accurate
Love this app. It is easy to use and accurate, Their backup communication is really good. I noted a missing species. All through the process, I was kept informed about the progress in correcting the information. I now have the corrected, updated version. 😁 Thanks!
