The left upper immature was seen in Mikumi (2-13), courtesy of Karine Van der Vurst. The right upper adult was on the Msumbugwe savanna (4-10). The second row 1CY birds and the 3rd row 2CY (left) and adult birds were seen in Denmark (9-08), courtesy of Dr. Louis A. Hansen. The birds in the slider were seen in Msumbugwe, Oldonyo Sambu, Ipole WMA, Ngorongoro Crater, Mikumi NP and Manyara Ranch.
