Spotted
The Chorister Robin-Chat is a highly acclaimed vocalist, characterized by its grey upperparts, rufous underparts, and an often prominent white patch behind the eye. It is a shy forest dweller.
Where to spot
Found in the forests of Southern and Eastern Africa, including South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Malawi, and Tanzania. It prefers dense evergreen and montane forests.
How to spot
Often heard before seen. Listen for its loud, clear, and incredibly varied song. Look for subtle movements in the dense canopy or undergrowth, as it tends to be secretive.
When to spot
A resident species, observable year-round. Most active and vocal at dawn and dusk, especially during the breeding season when its song can be heard echoing through the forest.
