Experiences with species

This difficult group of birds to identify make themselves even more so by keeping to the canopy of the forest, or deep in the gloom. Thankfully their calls are quite distinctive. Little Greenbul had been seen by most of the group, but although I could hear it, it remained elusive, until the first one at Fort Portal. After that they were everywhere!
