Upcher’s Warbler is a summer visitor to Pakistan, typically found in the northern and northwestern regions during the breeding season. It frequents a variety of habitats such as scrublands, open woodlands, and shrubby areas, particularly at higher elevations. Its range extends across the Himalayan foothills, including regions of Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Azad Kashmir.
Upcher’s Warblers are known for their melodious and repetitive songs, often heard in the early morning hours as males establish territories and attract mates. They are primarily insectivorous, feeding on a variety of small insects, larvae, and spiders gleaned from foliage and branches. Their behavior is often secretive, remaining hidden within dense vegetation, although they may become more conspicuous during the breeding season when singing and defending territories. Outside of the breeding season, they migrate southward to wintering grounds in warmer regions.
