The red-cheeked cordonbleu have pinkish bills with darker tips, as in the image above. Slideshow images 12 - 18 are of a family including an immature male, taken at Katavi. Note the brown or partially brown cheeks on some of the females, distinguishing them from the southern and blue-capped females. The image above of an adult male was taken in Ruaha in November 2007 and is courtesy of Paul Oliver; click the image to see several enlargements. |
