Anjouan White-eye

Zosterops anjuanensis

The Anjouan White-eye (Zosterops anjuanensis) is a small passerine bird endemic to the island of Anjouan in the Comoros archipelago. It has a distinctive white eye-ring, olive-green upperparts, and a yellow belly. This species is known for its lively and melodious song, often heard in the dense vegetation of the island's forests. Anjouan White-eyes are primarily insectivorous, foraging for small insects and larvae in the foliage. Due to habitat loss and fragmentation, the population of this species is declining, and it is considered vulnerable to extinction.

Habitat: Dense forests of Anjouan
