Dapple-throat

Arcanator orostruthus

Near Threatened

The Dapple-throat is a secretive African forest songbird that forages in dense undergrowth for insects and small invertebrates in East African forests and mountains. It is generally resident or locally nomadic, using suitable cover and food patches year-round. Fun fact: this batch includes remarkable specialists, from mimic-rich thrashers to brood-parasitic whydahs and nectar-feeding sugarbirds.
