Spotted
This very small, mouse-grey penduline-tit is found in dry woodlands and savannas of East Africa. It is known for its quiet, acrobatic foraging and communal nesting habits.
Where to spot
Dry woodlands, acacia savannas, and thornbush scrub in parts of East Africa (e.g., Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda).
How to spot
Look for its tiny size and swift movements through tree branches. Its subdued coloration can make it hard to spot, so listen for its soft, high-pitched calls.
When to spot
Observable year-round. Active during daylight hours, often in small groups.

Its common name refers to its dull, mouse-like grey plumage, which helps it blend in with the bark of trees as it forages.
