Spotted
Chubb's Cisticola is an African species found in montane forests, characterized by its relatively plain, unstreaked plumage and distinctive calls.
Where to spot
Found in East Africa, specifically in montane forests in countries like Uganda, Kenya, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
How to spot
Look for it in the undergrowth of montane forests. Listen for its distinctive song, which can often be the best way to locate this shy and secretive bird.
When to spot
A year-round resident. It is most active and vocal in the early mornings, which offers the best chances for observation.
Unlike many other cisticolas that primarily prefer open habitats, Chubb's Cisticola is a specialist of dense forest undergrowth, adapting to a different niche.
