This bird looks like a tiny clown hidden in the African trees.
The Crested Barbet lives in woodlands and gardens across Africa, showing off bright red, yellow, black, and white feathers with a spiky crest. It feeds on fruits, insects, and small animals with surprising boldness.
A noisy splash of color in the trees, yet one of Africa’s most eye-catching barbets.
