Spotted
Ansorge's Greenbul is a subtly marked bulbul, primarily olive-green with a slightly darker head, often difficult to distinguish without good views or familiarization with its calls. It prefers forest habitats.
Where to spot
Found in parts of Central Africa, inhabiting primary and mature secondary rainforests, often in the understory and mid-story, particularly in areas with dense vegetation.
How to spot
Listen for its calls, which can help differentiate it from similar greenbuls. Look for its general olive-green plumage and subtle head patterns. Patience is key in dense forest.
When to spot
Observable year-round in its resident range. Active during daylight hours, but its secretive nature means it is often heard rather than seen.
This species is named after William John Ansorge, a British zoologist and physician, who collected many specimens from Africa, contributing greatly to ornithological knowledge.
