About These Birds

Black-faced Rufous-warbler

The Black-faced Rufous-warbler is a small, secretive warbler with rich rufous-brown upperparts and a striking black face and throat, making it one of the more distinctively marked African warblers. It inhabits dense montane forest undergrowth and bamboo thickets in east-central Africa, particularly in the Albertine Rift region. It forages skulkingly close to the ground, searching leaf litter and dense vegetation for small insects.

Black-chested Prinia

The Black-chested Prinia is a small, warbler-like bird of sub-Saharan southern Africa, with a distinctive black breast band in breeding plumage, grey upperparts, and whitish underparts. It inhabits dry thorn scrub, open woodland, and grassland with scattered bushes in Angola, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and adjacent countries. It feeds on small insects and spiders, gleaning them from foliage.
