Yellow-bellied White-eye

Zosterops splendidus

The Yellow-bellied White-eye (Zosterops splendidus) is a small passerine bird native to the islands of the South Pacific. It is characterized by its distinctive yellow belly and bright green upperparts, with a white eye-ring that gives it its name. These sociable birds are often found in pairs or small groups, foraging for insects and nectar in the forest canopy. They are known for their melodious and varied songs, which they use for communication and territorial defense. The Yellow-bellied White-eye plays an important role in pollination and seed dispersal within its island habitats.
