Sooty Bushtit

Aegithalos fuliginosus

The Sooty Bushtit, known scientifically as Aegithalos fuliginosus, is a small and charming bird that graces the temperate forests of central China. This avian species is also referred to by other names such as the White-necklaced Tit, White-necklaced Bushtit, or simply the Sooty Tit.

Identification Tips

When observing the Sooty Bushtit, one should look for its distinctive sooty plumage, which is complemented by a subtle yet elegant white necklace that adorns its neck. This feature is particularly useful for distinguishing it from other species.

Habitat

The Sooty Bushtit is a denizen of temperate forests, where it flits among the foliage, making the most of the arboreal environment it calls home.

Distribution

This bird is endemic to central China, meaning it is found nowhere else in the world. Its presence is a testament to the unique avian diversity harbored within this region.

Conservation status

The IUCN Red List categorizes the Sooty Bushtit as Least Concern, indicating that, for now, this species does not face immediate threats that would jeopardize its survival. However, continuous monitoring is essential to ensure it remains out of danger.

My favourite app
As a young birdwatcher who was always keen to be apart of a community but never seemed to find one, my problem was solved downloading this!!! Everyone is so friendly and just as excited to see birds as me 😁

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! 🐦

Great birding app, good for logging your sightings, also has nice species guide. I'm enjoying the social aspect more than I expected, everyone seems friendly and helps to identify unknown birds. Good mix of newbies and experienced users.

Easy to use and accurate
Love this app. It is easy to use and accurate, Their backup communication is really good. I noted a missing species. All through the process, I was kept informed about the progress in correcting the information. I now have the corrected, updated version. 😁 Thanks!
