Observation details
Usually goes under the name "Northern Black Korhaan" in Africa. Formerly lumped with Black Bustard (Eupodotis afra). Some authors place this species in the genus "Afrotis." This is a male with striking black and white plumage and neat dorsal barring. They have a spectacular courtship display where males leap high in the air and sometimes do semi-somersaults. Females are browner and may be confused with Red-crested Bustard.
