Ghana – Rainforest Birding on the Brink by Adam Riley

10,000 Birds

The rare Rufous Fishing Owl was one of the many species seen by the group here.

Weavers

10,000 Birds

Dinemellia – White-headed Buffalo Weaver The White-headed Buffalo Weaver’s plumage is unique within the weaver group and the sexes are alike. Their nests are also a messy structure due to protective thorns on the outside, but the interior is constructed of softer grasses. Image taken in Tanzania by Adam Riley.
