Little is known about the diet of the Flame bowerbird, other than they forage for fruit and insects.

Male bowerbirds are renowned for building complex bowers from which they try to entice prospective mates by doing elaborate displays.

Female bowerbirds watch various displays and inspect each bower before selecting a mate. She then builds a nest from soft materials such as leaves, ferns, and vine tendrils. She then lays 1 egg which takes anywhere from 19 – 24 days to hatch.

Bowerbird species as a whole enjoy living in a range of habitats including rainforest, eucalyptus, and acacia forest, and shrublands.

The flame bowerbird is evaluated as least concern on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
