The Papyrus Warbler is a highly specialized African warbler found exclusively in vast papyrus swamps. Its reliance on this specific habitat makes it a habitat specialist.
Where to spot
Found in extensive papyrus swamps across central and eastern Africa, including countries like Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, and parts of DR Congo and Zambia.
How to spot
Requires access to large papyrus wetlands. Look for it clinging to papyrus stems or flying low over the water. Its distinctive, often metallic or rattling calls can help locate it in the dense vegetation.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active and vocal during the breeding season (varies regionally but often wet season) and in the early mornings and late afternoons.
