Spotted
The Variegated Fulvetta is a distinctive babbler known for its complex facial pattern of white, black, and brown streaks. It is a secretive resident of dense montane forests.
Where to spot
Found in southern China and northern Vietnam. It inhabits montane evergreen forests, preferring dense undergrowth and bamboo thickets at higher elevations.
How to spot
Look for its intricate facial pattern with white streaks on a dark background. It moves actively but discreetly through the undergrowth and mid-story. Listen for its high-pitched, often repeated, chattering calls.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Most active during the early morning and late afternoon. Often found in mixed-species foraging flocks.
Its 'variegated' face is quite unique, resembling a mosaic of subtle stripes and patches, which helps in identifying this elusive species.
