Long-tailed tits are such gorgeous, underrated little birds. This one was carefully avoiding the thorns. #birds

Much less common than the ubiquitous Montezuma, the Chestnut-headed Oropendola is a superb bird with that gorgeous blue eye.

Palm Nut Vultures - adult at the back and juvenile in front.

📍Kigali, Rwanda.

#birds #raptors #wildlife #naturephotography 🪶
Small, odd, distinctive vulture. Adults are boldly patterned black-and-white, with red bare facial skin. Juveniles are brown. Immature birds show a mixture of juvenile and adult traits.
