Cretzschmar's Bunting
Emberiza caesia
Very similar to Ortolan Bunting, but note that the base color of the head is gray and not green, and the throat is orange and not yellow. Adult males are brighter and more deeply-colored compared to females and young. Call is a sharper “tzip.” Song is a tri-syllabic, melancholic, and high-pitched whistled “si-si-siiii.” Breeds on open rocky slopes in Mediterranean climates. Winters in dry, open habitats such as fields, savannas, and wadis.

White-browed Scimitar-Babbler
Pomatorhinus schisticeps
Medium-sized babbler with a slightly decurved yellow bill. Somewhat similar in appearance to Streak-breasted Scimitar-Babbler, but has a clean white breast instead of a marked one. Usually forages low in the undergrowth, at middle levels, or on the ground, often in mixed flocks with other babblers and laughingthrushes. Found from the upper lowlands up into mountainous regions, where it inhabits forests with dense undergrowth, as well as shrubby edges and grassy areas. Repertoire is vast and includes whoops, rattles, and hooting. As with other scimitar-babblers, pairs duet with one another.

Hartlaub's Bustard
Lissotis hartlaubii
A medium-sized, long-legged, long-necked bustard. The male has a striking black face pattern and a black line down the neck that connects to the black belly. The female is much plainer. In flight, shows a mostly white wing and a black rump. An uncommon species of grassland and savanna. Male is similar to male Black-bellied Bustard, but separated by blacker face with a cleaner white mark on the cheek. Females are very similar, but Hartlaub’s has a pale line down the faintly speckled neck. In flight, Hartlaub’s also shows less black in the wing and a black rump. The male Hartlaub’s gives a click, a pop, and a moan, which sometimes precede a display flight in which he jumps up into the air and then parachutes down.

Black Goshawk
Astur melanoleucus
Large black-and-white goshawk. Most individuals have a white breast, but some have almost completely black underparts. Immatures have dark streaks below, over a white or rusty base color. Found in forest, woodland, thick savanna, and plantations. Calls are a long wail and an agitated scolding series. Dark-breasted birds similar to dark-morph Gabar Goshawk and Ovambo Sparrowhawk but are larger and have yellow legs and base of the bill. Somewhat similar to hawk-eagles, but much longer-tailed and faster in flight.
