Spotted
A rare and secretive bird of the Muscicapidae family, endemic to specific forest habitats in Malawi. It is characterized by its subtle plumage.
Where to spot
Restricted to montane evergreen forests, primarily in the Cholo Mountains of Malawi.
How to spot
Requires searching in dense forest undergrowth. Listening for its distinctive calls can be more effective than visual searching.
When to spot
Best observed during the breeding season when males are vocal; early mornings are generally most active.
The Cholo Alethe is considered a threatened species, primarily due to habitat loss and fragmentation, making sightings particularly special.
