Birds of East Africa
White-Browed Robin-Chat Feeding Baby

I had heard this bird (formerly known as Heuglin’s Robin) a few times in our garden without seeing it. It used to live in our garden in Malawi. A few weeks later, as I was getting back home, I looked up and saw one getting into its nest, just above the path. I went home and grabbed my camera bag. I spent about 45 minutes taking pictures of the parents feeding the young. Unfortunately, the next day, they was a goshawk in the tree and no trace of the Robins.
