Yellow-rumped Tinkerbird: Chimpanzee Forest Lodge, Kibale National Park, Uganda, August 2022 — Tinkerbirds are small barbets, mostly black and white with some yellow somewhere. I don’t remember seeing (or at least noticing) any tinkerbirds on my 2019 trip to Uganda, but they were everywhere in 2022. They are, in fact, very common throughout East Africa. We saw at least 3 different species. This is the Yellow-rumped Tinkerbird, which has more yellow than you can see in these photos. You can just see the yellow edging in the wings on the more profile view. There is, as you might suspect from the name, a bright yellow (varying in hue from lemon to gold, regionally) on the rump.
