Onychognathus tenuirostris
Home Alphabetical Taxonomic Comments



 
In Tanzania the slender-billed starling is patchily distributed, usually at higher elevation and associated with water, see map. This bird was photographed at Karibosa (Eritrea) in April 2009, courtesy of Jason Anderson. Note the very slender bill and the long, tapering tail, features that distinguish it from other red-winged starlings.
