Good Morning Everyone.

I came back from a fantastic 10 days in Kruger. Got 5 species that I saw that aren't clear to me... Wondering if anyone can confirm my sucpicions?

I believe that this guy is an African Firefinch.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, fully brown back clinches this one as an African Firefinch.
