Spotted
A medium-sized apalis with plain greyish upperparts and a paler, whitish belly. It has a relatively long tail and a somewhat slender build.
Where to spot
Montane forests, primarily in the upper canopy and mid-strata, in a restricted range in West and Central Africa (e.g., Cameroon, Nigeria, Equatorial Guinea, Bioko).
How to spot
Can be challenging to spot due to its drab plumage and canopy habits. Listen for its calls, which are often described as high-pitched and repetitive, helping to locate it.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active in the mornings. Breeding is likely during the local wet season.
Sharpe's Apalis is a high-altitude specialist, found in specific montane forest types, often in the mid-canopy or higher.
