West African Wattle-eye
Dyaphorophyia hormophora
Least ConcernThe West African Wattle-eye is a small African forest or woodland insectivore, often flicking through the understorey for flies, beetles, and caterpillars in Upper Guinea forests. It is generally resident, using local forest, scrub, or woodland year-round and shifting within its range as food changes. Fun fact: this batch includes some of the most distinctive island lineages in the bird catalog, from toxic ifritas to display-rich birds-of-paradise.
