The Pin-tailed Whydah, Vidua macroura, is a small songbird at Kruger National Park, South Africa.
The Pin-tailed Whydah, Vidua macroura, is a small songbird at Kruger National Park, South Africa. It is a resident breeding bird in most of Africa south of the Sahara Desert. This whydah is found in many open habitats including open woodland, scrub and cultivation. Pin tails need plenty of room to fly and perching in the open to keep their tails in good condition. Since they re-grow a new tail each season, a damaged feather is not cause for great concern.
