The Rufous-fronted Tailorbird is a small, active songbird found in the undergrowth of Southeast Asian forests. It is known for its distinctive rufous cap and is often heard before it is seen.
Where to spot
Found across Southeast Asia, including the Philippines. It typically inhabits forest undergrowth, secondary growth, and bamboo thickets.
How to spot
Listen for its loud, often repetitive song, which is a key way to locate it. Scan dense foliage and understory; they are quick and often move between cover, requiring patience for a clear view.
When to spot
Active year-round, most notably during early mornings and late afternoons. Breeding activity may increase its visibility in local spring and summer months.

Like other tailorbirds, this species exhibits remarkable nest-building skills, 'sewing' large leaves together to create a hidden, cup-shaped nest for its young.
