Short Description:
Whistler's Warbler (Seicercus whistleri) is a small songbird belonging to the Phylloscopidae family. It has a distinctive olive-green plumage with a yellowish belly and a pale eye ring. The bird's name is derived from its melodious whistling call, which is often heard during the breeding season. Whistler's Warbler is known for its agile movements as it forages for insects in dense foliage.

In Pakistan, Whistler’s Warbler is primarily found in the northern regions, particularly in the foothills and lower montane forests of the Himalayas. Its range extends from the northern parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province to the mountainous areas of Gilgit-Baltistan. It prefers habitats with dense vegetation and ample insect prey, such as forests, woodlands, and shrubby areas at higher elevations.
During the breeding season, Whistler’s Warbler is often observed singing from perches within the canopy of trees to establish territories and attract mates. It constructs cup-shaped nests from grass, moss, and other plant materials, typically concealed amidst dense foliage. This bird species is primarily insectivorous, feeding on small insects and spiders gleaned from leaves and branches. Whistler’s Warbler is known for its agile and acrobatic foraging behavior, flitting rapidly through foliage while searching for prey.
