Black-faced Warbler

Abroscopus schisticeps

The Black-faced Warbler, scientifically known as Abroscopus schisticeps, is a diminutive and active bird, a member of the bush warbler family Cettiidae. It is characterized by its distinctive facial markings and a general affinity for dense vegetation.

Identification Tips

This species can be recognized by its prominent black facial mask, which contrasts with the lighter surrounding plumage. The body is generally olive-green, allowing for camouflage among the foliage.

Habitat

The Black-faced Warbler frequents subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, as well as subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, where it can often be found flitting about in the undergrowth.

Distribution

The geographical range of this warbler spans across several Asian countries, including Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, Nepal, and Vietnam.

Behaviour

The Black-faced Warbler is known for its active foraging behavior, often seen darting through dense foliage in search of insects.

Conservation status

Great app for learning Birds
I’ve been using the app for a couple of months and love it....Someone said it’s like a real life Pokémon Go for birds. They’re not far off! It’s something that the family can do that gets you out and about. Well worth downloading no matter your age.

Clean and easy to use
Really enjoying this app, it's clean and easy to use. I love the ease of being able to add those one-off birds without starting a whole checklist. I also like the social aspect, like the parts of my Facebook I like, without the ads and junk, just birds. Can't wait to see it become more populated.

Just what birding needs
We need more fun in birding, for years it has had a reputation for being up tight and stuffy and only perused by retirees and anoraks. Birda helps change that perception and firmly brings birding into the 21st century! Fun, interactive while still contributing to science and conservation. If you aren’t on it, why not??

Simply fantastic
I love this app, it puts so much fun into recording the birds I’ve seen and heard while I’m out and about. The interface is user-friendly and suitable for all ages. It’s great to collect badges and to review my “lists”.

Learning Birding with Birda
I’m relatively new to birding as a hobby, and Birda is a great way to keep track off all the species I see. I’m still working on my ID skills, but the app is great for figuring out potential species, and the online community is so friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend Birda to both early and serious birders! 🐦

A Friendly Place
I love using the bird app, I have a pretty good knowledge of birds. But I do have some gaps in it, so it’s nice to have a safe space to check on a sighting to confirm the species. It’s really enjoyable and I love the badges you can collect. It’s like a real life Pokémon go.
