Spotted
The Mount Cameroon Boubou is an endemic species of bushshrike found only on Mount Cameroon and Bioko Island in West Africa. It is a dark, rather uniformly colored boubou of montane forests.
Where to spot
Endemic to montane forests on Mount Cameroon and Bioko Island (Equatorial Guinea).
How to spot
Look for its dark, dull plumage in dense montane forest. Its calls are important for identification, often a series of whistles and churring notes. Requires patience in its restricted, often challenging habitat.
When to spot
Active during daylight hours, often in the mist-shrouded forests.
This species is restricted to a very specific high-altitude habitat, making it vulnerable to climate change and habitat degradation.
