Spotted
A medium-sized, drab longbill with olive-green upperparts and dull yellowish underparts, particularly on the belly. It possesses the characteristic long, slender bill.
Where to spot
Tropical moist lowland and montane forests, particularly in the understory and mid-strata, across Central Africa, including Cameroon, Gabon, and Congo.
How to spot
Look for its yellowish wash on the underparts and its long bill as it probes foliage. It can be shy, so listening for its distinctive, often high-pitched, whistled calls is crucial for detection.
When to spot
Year-round resident. Active throughout the day. Breeding likely occurs during the local wet season.
The Yellow Longbill often joins mixed-species foraging flocks, moving with other insectivorous birds through the forest canopy to maximize foraging efficiency.
