The White-browed Oxylabes is a unique and rather large insectivorous bird endemic to Madagascar. It is typically found foraging in the understory of humid forests, identifiable by its prominent white supercilium.
Where to spot
Humid evergreen forests, primarily in the eastern and northern parts of Madagascar, foraging in the mid-story and undergrowth.
How to spot
Look for its distinctive white eyebrow and dark cap. It often joins mixed-species flocks, so scan the understory and lower canopy carefully for movement.
When to spot
Year-round, as it is a resident species. Active throughout the day, but best observed during morning hours when birds are most active.
This species belongs to the Bernieridae family, often referred to as the 'Madagascar Warblers', a fascinating group of birds that underwent an extensive evolutionary radiation unique to the island.
