Spotted
Fraser's Rufous-backed Thrush is a medium-sized thrush of West and Central African rainforests, characterized by its plain dark brown upperparts and striking rufous-chestnut underparts. It is a shy and secretive bird.
Where to spot
Found in West and Central African rainforests, including countries like Nigeria, Cameroon, Gabon, and Angola, preferring dense primary and secondary forests.
How to spot
Look for its dark brown back and contrasting rufous belly. It is often skulking in dense undergrowth, so listening for its distinctive calls can be crucial for detection.
When to spot
Most active during the early morning and late afternoon. Can be observed year-round within its resident range.
This species is primarily insectivorous, often foraging low in the undergrowth or on the forest floor, where its rufous underside helps it blend with leaf litter.
