Aylmer's Babbler is a relatively plain, medium-sized babbler found in the dry, thorny scrublands of East Africa. It is characterized by its uniform brownish-grey plumage and a pale eye, often seen in small groups.
Where to spot
Found in East Africa, primarily Kenya and Tanzania. Inhabits dry bushland, thorny scrub, and acacia woodlands in arid and semi-arid regions.
How to spot
Listen for its distinct, often rapid, chattering calls. Look for groups of plain brownish-grey birds moving through dense thorny vegetation. Its pale eye can stand out in good light.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active during the cooler parts of the day, particularly early morning and late afternoon. Often observed in small, cohesive groups.
