Sulawesi Streaked Fantail

Pellorneum celebense

The Sulawesi Streaked Fantail (Pellorneum celebense) is a small, insectivorous bird found in the forests of Sulawesi, Indonesia. This species is characterized by its distinctive streaked plumage, with a combination of brown, black, and white markings. It has a slender build and a long, fanned tail, which it often flicks from side to side while foraging for insects. The Sulawesi Streaked Fantail is typically found in the understory of primary and secondary forests, where it flits and hops among the foliage in search of prey. While its population status is not well-documented, habitat loss due to deforestation poses a potential threat to this species.
