Where to spot
Widespread across Sub-Saharan Africa, inhabiting forests, woodlands, gardens, and dense thickets.
How to spot
Look for it foraging quietly in the mid-story and undergrowth of dense vegetation. Its overall olive plumage is the key identifier. Listen for its varied, often warbling calls.
When to spot
Active year-round, particularly in the morning and late afternoon. Often heard rather than seen due to its skulking habits.

The Olive Sunbird is a widespread and adaptable species, often found in dense undergrowth where it can be quite secretive and heard rather than seen, despite its commonality.
