about

Species: Melaenornis annamarulae
Status: Vulnerable
Population: 6,000 - 15,000
Found: Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone


The Nimba flycatcher is found in hill forests, where it flies out from perches in the mid-canopy to catch its flying insect prey. This bird is classified as ‘Vulnerable’ and the species faces a high risk of extinction in the wild due to the massive destruction of lowland forest in the region. Its song is a series of about 5 loud and proclamatory, down-slurred whistles, followed by a bubbly trill; “peeew-peeew-peeew-peeew-toytoytoy”.
