Grey-capped Warbler

Cisticola cinereolus

The Grey-capped Warbler (Cisticola cinereolus) is a small, insectivorous bird found in grasslands and open areas across sub-Saharan Africa. It is characterized by its grey crown, olive-brown upperparts, and pale underparts with streaks. This species is known for its distinctive high-pitched song, often delivered from a prominent perch. Grey-capped Warblers forage for insects and small invertebrates in grassy habitats, using their slender bill to glean prey from the vegetation. They are often observed in pairs or small groups, and are known for their acrobatic flight displays during the breeding season.

Habitat: Grasslands and open areas
