A male Blue-breasted Cordon-bleu or Blue Waxbill perching then flying off. Blue-breasted Cordon-bleu or Blue Waxbills (Uraeginthus angolensis) are widespread and common, occurring from the Congo and East Africa to southern Africa. The sexes are similar, but males are brighter blue. They mainly eat grass seeds, and also take termites and other insects. Blue Waxbills are commonly kept as aviary birds, and are known as Cordon-bleu in the bird trade. This male Blue Waxbill was perching on a wire rope fence at the Pilanesberg Centre in Pilanesberg National Park. Elevation: 1146 m. Date added to IBC: April 6, 2019.
