Rufous-crowned Babbler

Arizelocichla fusciceps

The Rufous-crowned Babbler is a small, secretive bird found in the forests of Borneo and Sumatra. It has a distinctive rufous crown, olive-brown upperparts, and a whitish throat and underparts. This species is known for its melodious and varied song, often heard in the dense undergrowth where it forages for insects and small invertebrates. The Rufous-crowned Babbler is typically found in lowland and hill forests, and it is often observed in mixed-species foraging flocks. Despite its secretive nature, its vocalizations and occasional glimpses make it a sought-after species for birdwatchers and researchers.
