Wilson's Indigobird

Wilson's Indigobird or Pale-winged Indigobird is a species of bird in the Viduidae family. It is found in Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan, and Togo.

The Wilson's Indigobird is classified as Least Concern. Does not qualify for a more at risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category.

Tibati, Wilson's indigobird Vidua wilsoni, was not included in this study. V. camerunensis and V. raricola are distributed syntopically in small agricultural fields and surrounding bush, with individuals of different species or host races sometimes defending adjacent territories. Male indigobirds are highly territorial during the breeding season, and song playbacks elicit aggressive behavior (e.g., Payne, 1973Go). Territorial males sing conspicuously from a habitual "call site" at the top of a tree. More
