Spotted
The Pale Prinia is an arid-adapted species found in parts of Northeast Africa, characterized by its sandy-brown plumage, which provides excellent camouflage in dry environments.
Where to spot
Found in Northeast Africa, including Somalia, Ethiopia, and Kenya. It inhabits dry thornbush, semi-desert scrub, and stony arid plains.
How to spot
Look for its pale plumage against dry vegetation. Listen for its distinctive, often buzzing or trilling song. It can be elusive in dense, thorny bushes.
When to spot
A year-round resident. It is most active during the cooler parts of the day, particularly mornings and evenings.

Its pale coloration allows it to blend seamlessly into the dry, stony, and sandy habitats it occupies, making it hard to spot against the backdrop.
