Bangwa Forest Warbler

Bradypterus bangwaensis

The Bangwa Forest Warbler (Bradypterus bangwaensis) is a small, secretive bird species found in the montane forests of Cameroon and Nigeria. It is known for its distinctive song, which is often the best way to detect its presence. This warbler forages for insects and small invertebrates in the dense undergrowth of the forest, using its slender bill to probe for food. It is threatened by habitat loss due to deforestation and agricultural expansion. Conservation efforts are focused on preserving its remaining forest habitat and raising awareness about its vulnerability.

Habitat: Montane forests
