White -eye (1 Viewer)

I took the photos attached in Babile ( 1650 m elevation) Eastern Ethiopia, in February 2012. Couldn't get up to now an ID. The Babile region is semi arid with a lot od Lantana shrubs and mainly acacia trees. In Ethiopia occur: Abyssinian White-eye, Yellow White-eye and Montane White -eye most of them with some sub species, however none of them shows a brownish head. Would be great if you could help. Thanks, Volker

The extent of the eye ring suggests Montane, would be thinner on Abbysinian.

As far as I know, only the moderators can delete threads, ask nicely....:t:
