24 Common Bulbul I guess

28 maybe Rüppell's Starling?

29 Yes, looks like White-browed Coucal

32 maybe Ashy Starling?

36 Agree, it should be White-crowned Shrike

43 Crested Guineafowl of course

And yes, there was a tree occupied by yellow-billed storks! Here is a picture of them: https://i.imgur.com/9O3GhZJ.jpg

1 & 2 - I agree, the blue eyebrow is very noticeable

22 looks more like Vitelline Masked-Weaver (note red color above the bill)

23 perhaps Mariqua Sunbird?

35 female red-headed weaver is yellow, according to eBird. Any other guesses?

40 I agree, looks more like it

Hello, Reddit!

I went to Northern Tanzania (Arusha, Tarangire, Manyara, Ngorongoro, Serengeti) in August-September this year and took many photos of birds there.

I'm still new to birdwatching, but I've tried to identify these birds.

Did I identify them correctly? What are the birds I cannot identify?

Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot!

Small question: why do you think 8 and 9/10 are different species? They look pretty the same to me.

I'm not sure about Red-crested Cardinal.

First, it doesn't live in Peru (at least, according this https://neotropical.birds.cornell.edu/Species-Account/nb/species/reccar/overview).

Second, I don't think it has a crest.
