Bateleur Eagle (Terathopius ecaudatus), a young eagle still with brown feathers.
Southern Blue Waxbill (Uraeginthus angolensis).
As above.
Wood sandpiper (Tringa glareola). Birds wintering in S Africa originate from Eastern Europe.
The purple-crested turaco (Tauraco porphyreolophus), very beautiful with crimson flight feathers...
Also very difficult to photograph, they are masters at hiding in the trees.
I brightened this photo quite a lot to try and bring the colours out. Look closely and you can see a tinge of red flight feather in the wing behind the branch.
Dark-capped bulbul or Common bulbul (Pycnonotus tricolor).
Saddle-billed stork (Ephippiorhynchus senegalensis).
Black-collared barbet (Lybius torquatus).
