Principe White-eye
Zosterops ficedulinus
Baia das Agulhas, Príncipe, São Tomé and Príncipe - September 24 2017
São Tomé and Príncipe is blessed with four members of the White-eye family. Three of them are quite widespread and easy to see. But for some reason the Principe White-eye is among the most difficult bird to find in this island nation. Until this year, a photo of this species in the wild had never been published. As we saw this elusive bird, we were sure that we should get all endemics in São Tomé and Príncipe!
