Summary[edit]

Description

A beautiful little bird considered a bit rare / uncommon in our region. The birds habitat is near rocky areas / edges of rocky areas with open shrubland. It looks very much like a common Bushchat, but with one exception. The Ventral area is totally brown unlike the Bushchat which has a white area.

The bird prefers small insects and mosquitoes that are found in plenty in the shrublands. I am not sure if it is a local migrant, but suspect it could be since it disappears during summers. Guessing that is due to the disappearance of its food - insects - during the dry summer season.

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback.
