The Rufous-fronted Fulvetta is a small, engaging babbler easily identified by its rufous forehead and distinctive facial markings. It is an active resident of subtropical and tropical moist montane forests.
Where to spot
Found in mainland Southeast Asia, ranging from parts of Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and southern China. It prefers broadleaf evergreen and mixed forests at moderate to higher elevations.
How to spot
Look for its rufous crown and pale eye-ring. It's often found in the mid-story or undergrowth, moving quickly. Listen for its rapid, often repetitive, high-pitched calls and short, reedy songs.
When to spot
Present year-round. Mornings and late afternoons are prime times for observation, as they are most active then, often in family groups or mixed flocks.
