Our safari guide is also a birder by hobby, so we saw many different species of birds in South Africa. Many of them are so colorful. Here are a few... some I have labeled on the picture and some are labeled in the caption; with a few I have not identified yet. I'm sure if I emailed the pictures to our guide he would help me out. But in the meantime, here are my bird pictures:
