Note: 'Cossypha heinrichi' typically refers to the White-headed Robin-Chat or Heinrich's Robin-Chat. It is a rare and enigmatic forest bird, characterized by its rufous-orange plumage, a white head, and grey wings.
Where to spot
Endemic to a few isolated forest patches in Angola and Democratic Republic of Congo. It inhabits dense evergreen forests, particularly near water bodies.
How to spot
Extremely difficult to observe due to its rarity and shyness. Requires dedicated expeditions to its specific habitat. Listening for its calls may be the only way to detect its presence.
When to spot
A resident species, observable year-round, but sightings are extremely rare due to its elusiveness and restricted range. Early morning and late afternoon might offer the best chances.
This species is extremely localized and poorly known, often described as one of Africa's rarest robin-chats. Its habitat is threatened, making it a high priority for conservation.
