Lesser Masked Weaver (Ploceus intermedius); Cape bulbul (Pycnonotus capensis); Cape Wagtail (Motacilla capensis)

These are the last shots of my little bread I took two weeks or so ago. Some of the shots are not the best but some came out good! Here are three (or I think four) different friends! I have no idea what kind of friend the first shot is, I don't think it is a Lesser Masked Weaver, but I can be wrong. In any case, it is a stunning bird that I captured early one morning. The Cape bulbuls that took a bath looks happy as can be! And the Cape Wagtail, the last of photograph of this post, looks like if it is contemplating life, what a sad photograph of a normally cheerful friend! I hope you enjoy this post and the beauty of South Africa!
