4 sections

The Graceful Honeyeater (*Microptilotis gracilis*) is a small, olive-gray bird native to northeastern Australia’s Cape York Peninsula, southern New Guinea, and the Aru Islands. It is a common resident of tropical forests and mangroves, blending well into the lush greenery of its habitat. Birdwatchers often encounter this species in the mid-canopy, where its subtle plumage and unique facial markings set it apart from similar honeyeaters.
