Black-capped Donacobius

Donacobius atricapilla

Least Concern

The Black-capped Donacobius is a loud wetland songbird of marshes and lakeside vegetation, usually moving in pairs or family groups in sub-Saharan Africa. It is generally resident, using local habitat year-round while shifting within its range as food and cover change. Fun fact: this batch connects several unusual songbird lineages, from cliff-nesting rockfowl to wetland donacobius and oxpeckers that forage on large mammals.
