The Brown Bush warbler  (Locustella luteoventris, which was suspected to have disappeared from the forest, has been found again in Nepal. The Nepal Ornithologists' Association has said in a statement that the brown bush warbler, which has not been seen since then except for records from the 19th century, was recently found in Dibyanagar, Chitwan.
Ornithologist and wildlife photographer Pratap Gurung recorded the photo of brown bush warbler in the fields of Dibyanagar, Bharatpur Metropolitan City, Chitwan. Gurung recorded the Brown Bush warbler at 12:09 pm on November 23 while observing birds, said Laxman Poudel, the national coordinator of the Nepal Bird Census. According to him, 900 species of birds have been recorded in Nepal.
Ornithologist Gurung had taken a photo of the bird during the observation and made a preliminary identification. Gurung had sent the details and photos to the Nepal World Record Committee for the definitive confirmation of the newly seen bird. The Nepal Bird Record Committee has stated that the discovery of the Brown Bush warbler  (Locustella luteoventris) was confirmed only after studying the details received and receiving the opinions and suggestions of national and international ornithologists.
This bird, which belongs to the family Losuchidae of the Passeriformes class, is found in Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, Vietnam and Thailand. Since there are no photographic records of this bird in Nepal except for records from the 19th century, this bird was listed as extinct in Nepal.
