Supposed to be T. livingstonii in this area, but short crest with white-tipped rear margin says T. corythaix. |

Certainly does look like a Knysna. Pity that we cannot see the wing coverts as these should be darker for a Knysna than Livingstone's.
Crest looks a little more pointed than usual for a Knysna, but not pointed enough and the white tip too broad for Livingstone's. |
