Spotted
The Rufous-chinned Illadopsis is a secretive babbler of African forests, characterized by a faint rufous tinge on its chin and throat. It is an elusive resident of dense undergrowth.
Where to spot
Found in West and Central Africa, including countries like Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Congo, and Angola. It inhabits lowland rainforests, preferring dense undergrowth.
How to spot
Look for its subtle rufous chin and throat as it moves quietly through dense low vegetation. Listen for its distinctive, often mournful, whistled calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon. Patience is often required due to its skulking nature.
The subtle rufous wash on its chin is a key field mark that distinguishes it from other similar plain illadopsis species.
