The Chestnut-backed Bush Warbler is a species found in the mountains of Southeast Asia, particularly on the island of Sulawesi. It is characterized by its rufous-brown upperparts.
Where to spot
Endemic to the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia, found in montane forests, primarily above 1,000 meters, in dense undergrowth and forest edges.
How to spot
Focus on the understory of montane forests. Listen for its distinctive song, which can be a series of clear, rising notes, and search patiently for movement in the dense foliage.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Most active and vocal during the early mornings, often during the breeding season (varies regionally).

This warbler often forages in the dense undergrowth and mid-story of montane forests, making it a challenging bird to get a clear view of.
