One of Africa's most sought-after birds — nests exclusively on rock faces inside primary forest, with colonies in Korup NP and the Ebo Forest accessible with specialist guides.
A Cameroon endemic restricted to Afromontane forests of the Bamenda Highlands — its brilliant crimson primary feathers contain a copper-based pigment found in no other bird family.
Endemic to the slopes of Mount Cameroon — one of the world's largest volcanoes — and found nowhere else on Earth, typically above 1,500 m elevation.
The world's most intelligent parrot, capable of learning hundreds of words and basic counting — wild flocks roost communally in forest patches and fly in spectacular formations.
A tiny hornbill with a glossy black body and minimal casque — found in forest edges from sea level to montane zones, more often heard than seen.
A striking flycatcher with a bold black breast-band and vivid red eye-wattle — endemic to the Cameroon Highlands and now restricted to fewer than 10 forest fragments.
An elusive, forest-floor thrush of the Cameroon-Congo border — known from very few specimens and requiring specialist local knowledge to locate.
A small olive greenbul endemic to the Cameroon Highlands — an indicator species for the health of Afromontane forest, now under severe pressure from agricultural clearance.
