About These Birds
Black-faced Apalis
The Black-faced Apalis is a small, slim warbler-like bird with gray upperparts, white underparts, and a distinctive black mask across the face and throat. It is restricted to montane forests of the Albertine Rift in east-central Africa, inhabiting dense vegetation at elevations from 1,500 to 3,000 meters. It forages actively through the canopy and understory, gleaning small insects and invertebrates from leaves and branches.
