About These Birds
Black-headed Gonolek
The Black-headed Gonolek is a striking bushshrike with a jet-black head, back, and wings contrasting dramatically with its vivid crimson-red underparts. It inhabits dense papyrus swamps, riverside thickets, and reed beds of east-central Africa, particularly around the Great Lakes region. It feeds on insects and small invertebrates, remaining hidden in dense vegetation and communicating with loud, melodious duets.
