The steel-blue whydah is endemic to northeast Africa and parasitizes the black-faced and black-cheeked waxbills. The upper bird was seen on the Asogati Plain (4-06) and the middle bird, in the Serengeti (3-09). The two images of the lower bird were taken in the Serengeti (12-12), courtesy of Colin Beale.
