Project Noah Nature School
monticola rupestris
Larger and more bulky than other rock-thrushes, both sexes more richly coloured. (Newman's bird of southern africa)
Montane slopes, rocky, bush-covered hillsides at all altitudes and rocky gorges.
While I was trying to catch flying red-winged starlings( unsuccessfully) I saw this one on a nearby branch. Not sure it's a cape rock-thrush but it doesn't match with no other :/
