Where to spot
Endemic to central Kenya, particularly in the Rift Valley and surrounding highlands. Inhabits dry acacia woodland, dense scrub, and cultivation with scattered trees.
How to spot
Listen for its distinctive, often chattering and bubbling calls. Look for groups of rufous-brown birds moving through thorny bushes or on the ground. Its relatively bold behavior and association with other babblers can help in locating it.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon. Often observed in small, cohesive groups.
