Spotted
The Spotted Puffback is an African bushshrike known for its streaked underparts and the male's ability to puff up its back feathers. It inhabits forests and dense woodlands in West and Central Africa.
Where to spot
Found in West and Central Africa, typically in forest edges, clearings, and dense secondary growth.
How to spot
Look for the streaked or spotted appearance on its flanks and chest, which distinguishes it from other puffbacks. Listen for its unique clicking calls, which are a strong indicator of its presence.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, often more vocal during the breeding season.
The Spotted Puffback is often heard before it is seen, thanks to its characteristic clicking and bubbling calls that echo through the dense foliage.
