I had some trouble in my first BY seeing the difference between the Northern and Southern Fiscal in Zambia but this Long-tailed one is easier to recognize  ; great pictures Sharon !

Wrong part of the anatomy. Northern White-crowned Shrike.

A nice collection. Your 'mousebird made me blink. I thought it was a Budgie at first.

Well done with the Steppe Eagle and Babblers.

Thank goodness I have you to keep me honest! Next time I must write the names down as I go 🤣

You are racing along. Good to see Selenkay and Amboseli again.

The Owlet is a beauty

Some cracking birds in the count, you had an excellent trip.

The minute I saw your mystery bird I knew I'd seen it but couldn't put a name to it without looking.

From a different angle ( I love yours) here is a Red-capped Robin-chat

Stunning opening shot, a beautiful hadeda, and a lovely Pearl-spotted!

Thanks to @Dave WilliamsI am going to claim the Red-capped Robin Chat, but as I can't be bothered renumbering everything here it is again
