Home Alphabetical Taxonomic Comments










 

The upper black-lored babbler was photographed at Ndutu in May 2007. The white throat denotes the subspecies vepres which may have variable white on the underparts. Note also the black lores (the black part between eyes and bill). It is an east African endemic, commonly seen in the Serengeti where all of these images were made. The lower two birds were seen in November 2008, courtesy of Henrik Kisbye, and in February 2008, courtesy of Karine Van der Vurst Roll your cursor over the enlargement to see another.
