The Whistling Warbler is a rare small bird that lives only on the island of Saint Lucia in the Caribbean Sea. It is known for its loud clear whistle that sounds like a song.
The whistling warbler differs from other flycatchers with black-and-white coloration and a special whistling song. As a rare endemic of the island, it helps maintain the insect balance in mountain forests and serves as an indicator of their health.
Collects prey from plant surfaces.
