Dear Members and bird watchers
I spotted a few Bulbuls in Djibouti back in September 2018. I made a recording and I posted it on XENO-CANTO as a Common Bulbul as this was the only bulbul on my list for Djibouti.

All pictures taken in the Goda Mountains and the two last at the Foret Du Day camping and the very last picture is the bird you can hear in the recording above.
Today I got a message on XENO-CANTO wondering when I will change my bird to Somali bulbul, a bird that I have never heard of in Djibouti and not on my list.

But after having checked other sources I see that both the bulbuls are nesting in Djibouti.
Any one here know the difference between the Somali and Common Bulbul, I can for sure not see the difference between them.
My birds on the attached pictures, are they Somali or Common?
Kind regards and happy birding
