Grey-green Bushshrike

Grey-green Bushshrike: Bigodi Community Birding Project, Bigodi, Uganda, August 2022 — This is the smallest and oddest looking of the African Bushshrikes…so much so that you would be forgiven for thinking it is not a Bushshrike. 🙂 Also these photos are more about the bird than the photos. The bird was distant, the light was bad…I had to enlarge the images considerably to get usable scale. Still, it is a good bird! It was, until recently, called Bocage’s Bushshrike. (There also seems to be some debate whether it is Bush-shrike or Bushshrike? I am going with eBird here.) The Grey-green Bushshrike is found mostly in Uganda with isolated populations further west in central Africa, and one small population just into Kenya. (This is a bird that Wikipedia has practically no information on??) Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Photo and Apple Photos.
