The Thicket Lying Birds Of The South African Wilderness

 

South African Birds Of The Thickets

Many South African birds fit into this category, but only a few birds should be in it. The thicket dependant birds of South Africa are mostly shy and avoid contact with other living creatures, but some of these South African species are more "out-going" and not so shy. The birds that I have picked to fit into this category include the following South African Thicket bird species: Drongo's, Cuckooshrikes, Orioles, Thrushes, Palmthrushes and Rockjumpers. Here is the list and information on the birds of the thicket that reside in South Africa...
