Deignan's Babbler is a localized species with fine streaking on its crown and flanks. It is a secretive and active resident of dense undergrowth in lowland forests.
Where to spot
Found in parts of continental Southeast Asia, specifically in southern Thailand and Peninsular Malaysia. It inhabits lowland evergreen forests, preferring dense undergrowth, bamboo, and often streamsides.
How to spot
Listen for its distinctive, rapid, and chattering calls. Look for its fine streaking on the crown and flanks if you get a good view; otherwise, rely on its calls and general skulking behavior in dense vegetation.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon. Can be challenging to see due to its skulking nature.

Named after the American ornithologist Herbert Girton Deignan, this babbler's subtle streaking helps it blend seamlessly into its forested surroundings.
