Spotted
The Red-headed River Warbler is an African species primarily associated with riverine and wetland habitats, notable for its reddish head.
Where to spot
Found in West and Central Africa, primarily along rivers and in wetlands. It inhabits mangroves, reedbeds, and dense riverine vegetation.
How to spot
Focus on marshy areas and riverbanks. Look for its reddish head as it moves through dense aquatic vegetation. Listen for its distinctive calls.
When to spot
A year-round resident. It is most active in the early mornings, when it can be seen foraging along the water's edge.
Despite its 'warbler' common name, it is a true cisticola, and its strong association with water is a distinguishing habit that sets it apart.
