The Southern Crested Guineafowl is another distinct population or species within the complex group of Crested Guineafowl. It is characterized by its specific geographic range and subtle morphological differences.
Where to spot
This guineafowl is primarily found in the forested and woodland habitats of Southern Central Africa, with its range extending into countries like Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
How to spot
Look for groups moving through the undergrowth of woodlands and forests. Their calls are a key identification feature, so listen carefully for their distinctive vocalizations.
