The rufous-fronted tailorbird (Orthotomus frontalis) is a species of bird formerly placed in the Old World warbler assemblage, but now placed in the family Cisticolidae. It is native to the southern and eastern Philippines. Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forests and tropical mangrove forests.
Description and taxonomy.
Ebird describes it as "A small, long-billed, long-tailed bird of dense tangled undergrowth in lowland forest. Has olive-green wings, back, and tail, a pale belly, a gray head and chest with streaks, a rufous forehead and mask, and orange legs. Similar in habits and shape to White-browed Tailorbird, but lacks the black head and white brow. Also similar to Philippine leaf warbler, but has a longer bill and usually cocks its tail. Song is an accelerating series of slightly rising notes ending in a staccato trill."
Subspecies.
Two subspecies are recognized:
Ecology and behavior.

Habitat and conservation status.
Its natural habitat is tropical moist lowland forests and second growth. 
IUCN has assessed this bird as least-concern species and the population is believed to be stable as it is still locally common and can tolerate second growth. 
Occurs in a few protected areas like Pasonanca Natural Park, Mount Apo and Mount Kitanglad on Mindanao, Rajah Sikatuna Protected Landscape in Bohol and Samar Island Natural Park but actual protection and enforcement from illegal logging and hunting are lax
