South Africa Birds

Hi guys,

I need some help identifying a few birds that I photographed last June in Hluhluwe-Umfolozi National Park in South Africa. I am pretty sure No.2 is a Burchell's Coucal. No idea on the other two. Thanks in advance.

I would say

1. Yellow-throated Longclaw
2. Burchell's Coucal
3. Dark-capped Bulbul

I'm off to S.Africa myself in a couple of weeks so it's good to get some practice in!

Great! Thanks. I thought No. 3 was some type of Bulbul.
