Yellow-fronted Tinkerbird (Pogoniulus chrysoconus)

Like a small version of a Pied Barbet. Tinkerbirds, formerly called Tinkerbarbets, are warbler-sized, inconspicuous barbets which tend to stay high in the canopy. This one was no exception and I was surprised that my effort resulted in a recognizable image. They are named for their metallic "tink" calls. Three subspecies range through Sub-Saharan Africa. South African birds are the race "P. c. extoni" which is slightly larger than the others and has a broader black band across the forehead.
