The Banded Barbet is endemic to the highlands of Ethiopia and Eritrea being usually found in woodland, forest and adjacent scrub. This bird was photographed in the gardens of the Roha Hotel in Lalibela. The bird is quite agitated as were all the sparrows and weavers - what was causing the panic was a chameleon which was climbing up the tree stem, see http://www.pbase.com/ianfulton/image/94057828 .
