Cettia major

The Chestnut-crowned Bush Warbler, known scientifically as Cettia major, is a charming species of warbler that graces the South Asian landscape. This bird is adorned with a distinctive chestnut crown that gives it its common name.

Identification Tips

When attempting to identify this elusive warbler, look for its defining chestnut crown, which is a key feature distinguishing it from other warblers in its habitat.

Habitat

The Chestnut-crowned Bush Warbler is a denizen of the South Asian region, where it frequents the undergrowth, blending seamlessly with its surroundings.

Distribution

This species is known to inhabit various parts of South Asia, where it is a familiar sight to those who know where to look.

Behaviour

Observations of the Chestnut-crowned Bush Warbler reveal a bird that is not rapidly declining in numbers, suggesting a certain resilience in its behavior and adaptability to its environment.

Really great app
It’s easy to use and it’s fun to log the birds you notice on a walk or just in your garden. There’s a option to record the birds you see in a session which is really nice. Good excuse to stop for a while and just watch birds. I am also enjoying the information part where you can find out fact about birds from all over the world.

Great bird recording
For a while I’ve been trying to find an app to easily record bird lists and day out and struggled to find one that I like. Birda is great for this, straightforward and a great community!

We've been waiting for an App like this
Excellent! We've been waiting for an app like this! Thank you! It would be nice if you could assign additional birds to sessions later!

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.
