Hard to choose Batmad, I have so many favourites :hmz: but....
Since learning (here on this very forum :clap: ) that it takes a Bateleur 7years to obtain it's beautiful colours, it's my favourite at the moment. :) I hope my other favourites understand!

Difficult one Batmad Can I choose 2?
The Fish eagle, because it is beautiful and its call represents the African bush for me
And the Bru Bru a pretty small bird with a lovely call
Did I say 2 :hmz: How about the Gray headed bush shrike. Better stop now or I'll go on all day :lol:

My everyday favourite - mimicking my telephone, scrubbing in the scrub, but always neat and well mannered!

The little Cape Robin-Chat
