The Mountain Yellow Warbler (Iduna Similis) is a medium sized bird with a mix of olive and yellow coloration. This bird is mostly found throughout the forests of Africa. We see this bird normally feeding on flies but sometimes on remaining crops from harvests. An easy way to recognize this bird is with its whistle-tone vocalizations. The Mountain Yellow Warbler is found on the Least Concern list for their conservation status.[3] This bird is a species of Acrocephalidae warbler; formerly, these were placed in the paraphyletic "Old World warblers".
