Note: Scientific name 'Eumyias panayensis' is usually associated with the 'Island Flycatcher' or similar common names related to flycatchers, not 'Bush Warbler'. Assuming 'Eumyias' genus, it's a flycatcher. The Panay Flycatcher is a distinctive island endemic, characterized by its blue-grey plumage with a paler belly.
Where to spot
Endemic to the Western Visayan islands of the Philippines, including Panay, Negros, and Guimaras. It inhabits montane forests, often in the understory.
How to spot
Look for its blue-grey coloration in the forest undergrowth. It can be quite active, flitting between branches. Listen for its short, sharp calls.
When to spot
A resident species, observable year-round. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon, foraging for insects.
