The Evergreen Forest Warbler is a small, secretive species found in the montane forests of Africa. It typically remains hidden in dense undergrowth, making it more often heard than seen.
Where to spot
Montane evergreen forests, dense undergrowth, bamboo thickets, and forest edges in East and Central Africa.
How to spot
Listen carefully for its characteristic song, a series of rapid, high-pitched notes. Observing it requires significant patience, as it tends to stay deep within dense vegetation; look for subtle movements in the foliage.
When to spot
Year-round, as it is a resident species. Early mornings are generally the best time to hear its distinctive calls.
