Spotted
The Angolan Babbler is a vocal and social species, characterized by its mottled brown plumage and active foraging habits. It is often found in small to medium-sized groups, moving conspicuously through the undergrowth and lower canopy. This species is native to Central and Southern Africa.
Where to spot
Found in Angola and neighboring parts of Zambia, Democratic Republic of Congo, and Namibia. It inhabits various woodland types, particularly miombo woodlands, and often areas with dense thickets and riverine vegetation.
How to spot
Listen for their distinctive, often loud and chattering calls, which are a strong clue to their presence. Watch for groups actively foraging near the ground, often making short flights between bushes.
When to spot
Observable throughout the year within its range. Activity is highest in the early morning and late afternoon. Look for them especially during the breeding season when pairs or groups are more territorial and vocal.

Angolan Babblers often participate in mixed-species foraging flocks, particularly during the non-breeding season, to enhance foraging efficiency and improve predator detection.
