Eastern Plantain-Eater

I was with a guide, Wilson, on the hill between Nkima Forest Lodge and the Mabamba Swamp northwest of Entebbe, Uganda. He spotted an eastern plantain-eater on a branch in a tree above us. As we walked a second one appeared on the same branch. Then Wilson noticed a nest and said that was why they were not flying away. Then as we went beyond and looked back, we noticed a juvenile bird near the nest. Later, in Kidepo Valley NP in northeastern Uganda I saw a single eastern plantain-eater with our guide, William.

They are mainly gray above, spotted with brown. They have an erectile crest. The head, neck and breast are brown streaked with silver. The underparts are whitish, heavily streaked with brown. They have a yellow bill and a white wing bar that shows in flight. Both sexes look the same. They are related to the go-away birds, as you can see in my last post, and the turacos which I have not seen yet.
