Grey Bushchats are commonly found in the northern and northwestern regions of Pakistan, particularly in mountainous areas and scrublands. They inhabit altitudes ranging from foothills to high elevations, often seen near streams, rocky outcrops, and agricultural fields.
These birds are territorial during the breeding season, often perching prominently on exposed branches or rocks to sing and defend their territory. They feed primarily on insects, foraging on the ground or catching prey in mid-air. Grey Bushchats are known for their agile and acrobatic flight patterns. During the non-breeding season, they may form loose flocks, especially during migration.
