Senegal Lapwing
“This migrant lapwing, with yellow-orange eyes and brown legs, is essentially a Mozambiquan bird, but can sometimes be seen here at the western point of its range,” according to a Sabi Sabi field guide. “It favors dry savannah, and especially burnt or heavily grazed areas. It is nomadic, occurring in small parties.”
Golden-breasted Bunting
This striking species occurs in various woodlands throughout large portions of sub-Saharan Africa. I was hoping this bird would move to a spot with fewer branches while I photographed it, but sometimes you have to take what you can get.
