Resident in equatorial areas. Seasonal migrant at higher latitudes, arriving in rains, leaving after end of rains,
although some remain in non-breeding season, when silent. In N Senegal occurs only in rainy season, in Ghana
mainly a wet-season visitor, in N Togo in rains, and in S Togo throughout the year. Occasional records in SW
Arabia, where possibly breeds. (del Hoyo J, Elliott A, Sargatal J (eds), 1997)
