Campicoloides bifasciatus
The Buff-streaked Chat is a bird that is found only in South Africa, Lesotho and Eswatini (formerly Swaziland), where it occurs mainly on the Drakensberg range and in its foothills (with an apparently isolated population in the Waterberg), being a denizen of grassy, boulder-strewn hillsides and isolated rocky outcrops, though it has also adapted to living near human dwellings on farms and in small towns. They feed primarily on insects and other invertebrates, taking seeds and nectar on occasion.
Usually encountered in territorial pairs, Buff-streaked Chats breed in the summer months, when the female builds a large, untidy cup of twigs, fine roots and grass in which she incubates a clutch of 2-4 eggs, usually in a crevice, under an overhanging rock or in a thick tuft of grass. Both parents take care of the nestlings and are often assisted by the young from the previous brood. Fully grown they measure about 16cm in length and weigh approximately 30g.
The IUCN considers the Buff-streaked Chat to be of least concern, and though commonly encountered where they occur their habitat must’ve been severely diminished in recent history with the proliferation on exotic plantations in their preferred distribution range.

Always impressed with your bird photography, my friend!
Thank you so much for your kind comment, dear John!
Gonna have to put that one on my “wanna see list.” What a cutie.
I hope your upcoming visit includes places where they occur, Kathy?
Awesome.
Dit is interessant om te lees dat die jonger “kinders” ook na die kleintjies omsien. Is dit algemeen onder voëls?
Dis n gedrag wat by heelparty voels en ook soogdiere, soos jakkalse en muishonde, voorkom, Corna.
I don’t recall having seen one, so have enoyed looking at your photographs 🙂
Mountain Zebra National Park seems to be a good spot to see them, especially on the steep road leading out from the camp to the Rooiplaat plateau above. You should look out for them there next time you visit, Anne.
Will do!
