The Cape Verde Swamp Warbler is a critically endangered island endemic found only on a few islands within the Cape Verde archipelago. It inhabits dense wetland vegetation.
Where to spot
Critically endangered and endemic to a few islands within the Cape Verde archipelago, primarily Santiago, and possibly Fogo and Santo Antão, in dense reedbeds and marshy areas.
How to spot
Requires dedicated search in the few remaining suitable wetland habitats on the Cape Verde islands. Listen for its distinctive calls and song, and patiently watch the densest aquatic vegetation.
When to spot
Year-round resident, but extreme rarity makes observation opportunistic. Best chances are during the breeding season when males are more vocal.
