Pink-throated Twinspot (Hypargos margaritatus)

I went back to my archives to find this one when I realised that Opus and DB still needed this bird. I will have to go back to Mkhuze soon - I must get a better shot!

I know the feeling! The only twinspot I have managed to photograph was a very blurry green twinspot at Rocktail Bay. Mkhuze is a good spot for the pinks. I'm going down to Phinda tomorrow (Wednesday 7th), so I'll keep my eyes open.

Well done.
Dave
