Angola Waxbill

Coccopygia bocagei

The Angola waxbill is a species of estrildid finch endemic to western Angola. Some taxonomists consider it to be conspecific with the swee waxbill of the south and east of South Africa; it differs from this in the yellowish belly and undertail coverts, rather than grey as in the swee waxbill.
