The Benguet Bush Warbler is a small, plain-looking warbler endemic to the Philippines. It inhabits montane forests, favoring dense undergrowth and grassy areas, and is known for its shy nature.
Where to spot
Dense undergrowth, forest edges, and grasslands within montane forests on the islands of Luzon and Mindanao in the Philippines.
How to spot
Primarily detected by its distinctive song or call notes emanating from dense cover. Look for slight movements in low vegetation, though a clear view is often difficult to obtain.
When to spot
Year-round, as it is a resident species. Early mornings are often the most active period for this bird.

This warbler is named after Henry Seebohm, a British ornithologist. Its secretive habits mean that its full behavioral ecology is still being studied by scientists.
