The Grey-throated Tit-Flycatcher (*Fraseria griseigularis*) is a small, active African flycatcher. It has a distinctive grey throat and upper breast contrasting with a paler belly, and an overall dusky-brown plumage.
Where to spot
Inhabits the understory and mid-story of humid lowland forests and dense secondary growth across West and Central Africa, from Sierra Leone to Uganda.
How to spot
Look for its small size, grey throat, and active foraging style. It moves quickly through dense foliage, so patience and quick observation are necessary. Listen for its high-pitched, thin calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round. It is typically active throughout the day, foraging for insects by gleaning from leaves or making short aerial sallies.
