Spotted
The Rufous-bellied Babbler is a small babbler species found in India and Sri Lanka. It is characterized by its reddish-brown belly and often skulks in dense undergrowth.
Where to spot
Found in various parts of the Indian subcontinent, including peninsular India and Sri Lanka. Inhabits dense scrub, bamboo thickets, and secondary growth.
How to spot
Look for small, brownish birds with a rufous belly, moving through dense vegetation. Listen for their distinctive soft, 'chip' or 'tchee-tchee' calls, which often reveal their presence before they are seen.
When to spot
Active year-round. Most visible during early morning and late afternoon as they forage, though often secretive.
