golden bird

A break from food and theme shots, here's a recent shot for the Extras album. I believe this is a common bulbul (though no doubt someone will correct me if I am wrong).

Another beauty! Not seen one of these before - looks quite an unusual shade of brown, love the yellow spot of colour.

@fintan Hi, Fintan, it is definitely a Common Bulbul (found widely across Africa).
