Fly River Grassbird
Poodytes albolimbatus
The Fly River grassbird (Poodytes albolimbatus) is a species of Old World warbler in the family Locustellidae. It is found in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. Its natural habitats are freshwater marshes and lakes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The Fly River grassbird was formally described in 1879 by the Italian naturalists Luigi D'Albertis and Tommaso Salvadori from specimens collected near the Fly River in New Guinea. They coined the binomial name Poodytes albolimbatus. The genus name combines the Ancient Greek poa meaning "grass" with dutēs meaning "diver". The specific albolimbatus combines the Latin albus meaning "white" with limbatus meaning "edged" (from limbus meaning "border", "fringe" or "band"). The species is monotypic: no subspecies are recognised.

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! ❤️

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.

Awesome Birding Community
I absolutely love the community aspect of this app. The app is so user friendly and has fun interactive challenges to get you out birding. I’ve tried others but since I’ve started using Birda I’ve not gone back!
