Description
The Kamchatka leaf warbler (Phylloscopus examinandus) is a species of leaf warbler (family Phylloscopidae). It was formerly included in the "Old World warbler" assemblage. It is closely related to the Arctic warbler and the Japanese leaf warbler, to which it was formerly considered conspecific. It breeds in Kamchatka, Sakhalin, Hokkaido and the Kurile Islands; it migrates to Indonesia and the Philippines.

Feeding Habits
Kamchatka Leaf Warbler primarily consumes small insects and invertebrates, foraging among foliage with adept maneuvers. Distinctive adaptations aid in efficient prey capture, though specific preferences remain undetailed.
Habitat
Kamchatka Leaf Warbler is associated with various woodland habitats across broader geographical regions in Asia. This bird typically breeds in broadleaf deciduous forests with dense undergrowth, often near riverbanks in lowland areas. It can also be found in the subalpine zones where birch and dwarf pine are present. During migration and in its non-breeding range, kamchatka Leaf Warbler prefers elevations below 1800 meters and is commonly observed in mixed woodlands, rainforest margins, secondary growth, and on the periphery of agricultural lands and gardens.
