Spotted
The Chestnut-crowned Bush Warbler is a medium-sized, somewhat robust warbler with a prominent rufous crown and olive-brown upperparts. It is a skulking resident of dense undergrowth.
Where to spot
Inhabits dense bamboo, scrub, and undergrowth in montane forests across parts of the Himalayas and Southeast Asia.
How to spot
Listen intently for its loud, rich song, which carries well through the forest. Patience is vital, as it stays hidden in thick vegetation, only occasionally perching briefly in the open.
When to spot
Observable year-round in its resident high-altitude range. Most vocal during the breeding season (spring/summer).

Its loud and explosive song is disproportionately strong for its size, often being the only reliable way to detect this secretive bird in its dense habitat.
