Green-backed Camaroptera

Green-backed Camaroptera: Chimpanzee Forest Lodge, Kibale National Park, Uganda, August 2022 — The Green-backed (or Grey-backed) Camaroptera is a wren-like warbler, common in much of Africa south of the Sahara…both west and east, and all the way down the east coast to far-South Africa. Some consider the Green-backed varieties (East Africa and south) and the Grey-backed (West Africa) to be separate species. To confuse matters, when it is considered a single species, some call it Green-backed and some call it Grey-backed (IOC has Green-backed)…and, to even further confuse, some call it Bleating Camaroptera. In the single species scheme there might be up to 8 subspecies. 🙂 Sony Rx10iv at 561mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications.
