A Speckled Mousebird perched on an overhead cable against a soft beige sky. It has a brown body, a pointed crest, and an extremely long tail that hangs straight down, glowing warm in the morning light.

A Speckled Mousebird captured mid-flight with wings fully spread. The feathers catch the sunlight, creating a warm glow as the bird glides across a smooth, pale sky.

This beautiful Speckled Mousebird gave me a perfect moment this morning, first perched proudly on a cable with its trademark crest and extra-long tail, then gliding into flight with its wings glowing in the soft Kigali sunrise.
