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.

Very Wholesome App
Joined this app with a new interest in watching birds to help me find out what I was spotting. The community is very active in helping identify birds which is great and everyone is very kind so it’s just a nice wholesome community. I would definitely recommend this for any bird spotter 😄

I really enjoy being able to interact with other birders on this platform! This seems like a great way to meet other birders and find some new spots.

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.

Awesome Birding Community
I absolutely love the community aspect of this app. The app is so user friendly and has fun interactive challenges to get you out birding. I’ve tried others but since I’ve started using Birda I’ve not gone back!

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.

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.
