Village Indigobird has been recorded here in SABAP1. EC birding group seem to think it is a fem Pintail Whydah. I had it as Dusky Indigobird for which I got an ORF. Please help! |

In addition, dark bill looks two-toned (lower mandible has reddish tint). Legs not red or whitish as with Indigobirds |
