We always refer to him as the happiest bird in the park :) He's also known as the 'Joburg Joller' He sounds like a local walking along with a radio on his shoulder whistling along to the tune.
Lovely bird quite difficult to find but easy to hear.

"I am so beautifulllll... soooo beautifulllll" is the syllable it is singing.
