Spotted
The Red-faced Prinia is a species with a distinctive rufous face and forehead, found in open, arid environments of eastern Africa.
Where to spot
Found in East Africa, including Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya, and Tanzania. It inhabits dry scrubland, acacia savanna, and rocky semi-desert.
How to spot
Look for the prominent rufous face. It often forages low in thorny bushes, so quiet observation is key. Listen for its high-pitched, rattling call.
When to spot
A year-round resident. It is active during the cooler parts of the day, such as early mornings and evenings.
Its bright rufous face is a clear indicator, helping it stand out among other prinias in its range, particularly in the often drab desert environments.
