Description
A fearless Zambezi yellow-bellied greenbul (Chlorocichla flaviventris) in Chobe National Park, Botswana.
During a game drive in Chobe National Park in Botswana, we stopped for morning tea in the middle of the bush and this fellow came to visit me hoping to snatch a crumb of my rusk biscuit. I had a bit of trouble getting his picture because he insisted on perching just a foot or so away - too close for the wildlife lens I had mounted on my camera. He is just three feet away here, giving me one last opportunity for a shot and still hoping for crumbs.
