views of White-throated Francolin, a species we recorded each day during our stay at Benoue. A male, no more than 20m away, was enticed from its dense-grass haunt into open view. Well satisfied with our morning's work, we headed back to camp for a well-earned brunch. This was followed up with a drive to the Hippo Pools, where we had close-up views of the superb Egyptian Plover, the penultimate river-associated species on our hit list. More

White-throated Francolin drew a blank but despite the increasing heat and accompanying sweat bees we got great views eventually of a Red-winged Warbler in the canopy, a stunning Red-necked Falcon and, in a few magic moments, two Spotted Creepers, and four Yellow-bellied Hyliotas showed extremely well in the trees, whilst Rufous Cisticola was a little more dowdy but none the less a welcome addition to the list and seen very well.
