There are actually much nicer photos of the Purple-crested Turaco in another blog post of mine, Birding Mkuze. The Spotted Ground Thrush wishes to apologize to the readers of this blog post for not being more cooperative in having its photo taken. Still, why waste some perfectly mediocre photos.

At an auspicious time, I enlisted the test takers to help me corral the critter, which I then summarily ejected from the premises. I blame Baby Bird Week.
