Spotted
The Rufous-vented Bulbul is a distinctive bulbul, identified by its olive-brown body and, most notably, its contrasting rufous-colored undertail coverts. It is a forest specialist.
Where to spot
Found in mainland Southeast Asia, inhabiting primary and secondary rainforests, often in the understory and mid-story, particularly in areas with dense vegetation.
How to spot
Focus on observing the undertail coverts for the rufous color. Listen for its calls, which can help in locating it within the dense forest environment. Patience is key.
When to spot
Observable year-round in its resident tropical habitat. Active during daylight hours, though it can be secretive within dense foliage.
The vibrant rufous undertail is a key diagnostic feature, providing a flash of color as the bird moves through the dense undergrowth, helping with quick identification.
