The distinctive call of the blue-naped mousebird is well illustrated in the recordings. All of the slideshow photos are adults: note the iridescent blue nape, long narrow tail, red eye mask and the black-tipped red bill. The left 4th row photo, Mererani, is courtesy of Alex Rees; the right 4th row, Lake Mburo-Uganda, courtesy Karine Van der Vurst; and the left 5th row, Lake Chala, courtesy of Lynn Waltenberg. The others were seen at Engikaret, Kia Lodge, Lake Manyara, Olasiti, Shambarai swamp and Ngutukoiti. Click the photo above to see 10 enlargements.
