The Kashmir Bush Warbler is a species restricted to the western Himalayas. It is a skulking bird of dense undergrowth, making it challenging to observe.
Where to spot
Endemic to the western Himalayas, primarily Kashmir and adjacent areas of Pakistan and India, inhabiting dense undergrowth, scrub, and bamboo in montane forests.
How to spot
Focus on dense undergrowth in montane areas. Listen for its unusual, frog-like calls and its distinctive song, which is often a series of high-pitched notes, before attempting a visual.
When to spot
Year-round resident, though some altitudinal movements may occur. Most active and vocal during the breeding season (spring/summer).
