Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Fairly small, pretty bird with a typical warbler shape. The back and crown are olive-green, the breast is whitish, and the belly varies geographically from whitish to yellow. Found in broadleaved woodland and moist savanna. Active, restless bird. Usually in small flocks, and often mixes with other species. Calls are series of low whistles and rough “brrit” notes, sometimes given excitedly by a whole group. The olive-green crown separates it from other eremomelas. Similar to white-eyes, but lacks white crescents around the eye.
