Fan-tailed Grassbird

Catriscus brevirostris

Least Concern

The Fan-tailed Grassbird is a grassbird, bush warbler, grasshopper warbler, or close ally of sub-Saharan African grasslands, wetlands, and montane forest understorey. It stays low in dense grass, reeds, bracken, or forest understorey, searching for insects and spiders, and many species are more often heard by their trilling songs than seen.
