The Fulvous-bellied Greenbul is a subtly attractive bulbul, characterized by its olive-green upperparts and a soft, warm buff or fulvous wash on its belly. It prefers dense forest undergrowth.
Where to spot
Found in West and Central Africa, inhabiting the understory and mid-story of primary and mature secondary rainforests, often in dense thickets and vine tangles.
How to spot
Look for the subtle but noticeable fulvous (buff/orange-brown) wash on its underparts. Listen for its calls, which often provide the best clue to its presence in dense forest.
When to spot
Observable year-round in its resident tropical habitat. Most active during daylight hours, particularly early morning and late afternoon.
