Red-billed Pytilia Pytilia lineata

A pretty and distinctive waxbill that is mostly gray with red wings, tail, and bill. Females are slightly duller and more brownish than males. Found locally in savanna, woodland, and cultivated areas, often in flocks. Range overlaps with Green-winged and Orange-winged Pytilias, but Red-billed is easily separated by the red wing. Not very vocal, but the most common call is a low “chuk.”
