Africa Wild

Have I opened mouth and inserted foot again?

Maybe with regard to the eyes, but I don't think I have as regards the final ID.

Nope. I only posted the three species together for comparison in the hope that they would help others.

The eye colour on the Square-tailed Drongo is red Toks. Here is a lightened, close up version of the pic....



I must have hit the auto red-eye reduction button on my editing suite.

This pic taken a few minutes later when the bird had dried out and sorted it's feathers out show the eye colour better and also the forked tail with shallower notch than Fork-tailed. (I used the first pic as it was in a similar posture as the other two).

So is the birder community happy now with mine labelled as SBF ?
