The Striated Prinia is a widespread prinia species, notable for its streaked plumage, particularly on its crown and back. It is typically found in open country and grasslands.
Where to spot
Distributed across the Himalayas and Southeast Asia, ranging from India to China and Vietnam. It inhabits tall grasslands, scrub, and open woodlands.
How to spot
Look for it perched atop tall grass stems or reeds, often singing its buzzing or harsh calls. It can be quite elusive when moving through dense cover.
When to spot
A year-round resident. It is most vocal during the breeding season (spring/summer), which increases the chances of observation.
