Africa has many birds that are found nowhere else on the planet. And some of them make sounds that I would have never guessed. Let me know how you do in this game!
We will meet eight bird species found throughout sub-Saharan Africa, and learn what sounds each one makes!

I half got the bustard-I guessed Kori, and the very obvious cuckoo.
Two is pretty good for guessing unfamiliar birds. I have learned by making this that we often focus on the visuals of a bird, and there's not as much out there about sounds and behaviors. Thank you for playing, Mary Rose!
I wrote these comments while I played the video.
1. Sounds like tern + woodpecker + penguin?
2. Very strange. Never heard it. Shoebill?
3. Booming/rattling sound. Never heard it. Doesn’t even sound like a bird.
4. Rattling/clucking/metallic. Sounds like it belongs to the Galliformes, but can’t get more specific.
5. Obviously, some kind of Old World cuckoo, but no more specific.
6. Sparrow-like? Possibly a weaver or waxbill?
7. Sounds more like a vacuum than a bird.
8. Hornbill?
P.S. did you see my comment on the Natural Selection video? If not, you really should.
After #5, this was my exact thought process xD
1. The dance that goes with that call is fantastic: www.flickr.com/photos/berniedup/17310286502/
2. Large-ish walking bird; you were on the right track.
3. I also find that sound unbelievable.
4. I can see the high-pitched similarity.
5. YEAH!
6. It *was* one of those two things!
7. I think this one is a forehead-smacking answer, where once you know the answer it's obvious. I don't think I would guess this one right.
8. YEAH!
PS - I spent well over an hour trying to get a licensed Red-billed Quelea clip, and there was not a single one in my budget range. So surprising that the most numerous bird is so obscure.
PPS - I saw it, but I'm behind on answering comments. Seems like something I would do if I had infinite time, also very oddly specific fun thing to exist in the world. :)
I never stood a chance here, but I have an interesting fun fact: honey badgers are named after their symbiotic relationship to the honey guide, a bird which sings in the presence of beehives, alerting the badger (who runs on sheer spite by the way) so it tears the hive down, letting both eat the insides. Scientists now believe that's just folklore, they played the honey guides call to badgers and they ignored it.
Hi Marco! It's a good story, and I could see how both things happening would get linked (Honeyguide display, badger eating, Honeyguide eating). I myself had wondered how the Honeyguide/human symbiosis had arisen - like what did that behavior do before people figured it out, or did it develop alongside people. Then you concluded with "anyway, it's just a myth" so the question remains.
Lets goo I got the secretary bird, the bustard and the cuckoo first try!
Hi uVie! All three of those are really good! The Secretarybird sounds unbelievable. How did you gain your knowledge of African bird sounds? Also, thanks for playing!
@@BioBush Well, I had once studied a bit about secretary birds once (for absolutely no reason at all) and that's how I remember the strange cry. Thanks for replying!
Well done
Hi Reborn Me! I just wanted to say it's been so nice seeing your positive comments come in lately. I'm glad you're having so much fun with the videos. There is so much out there to learn about birds!
I was able to guess a few of these to a relatively close degree, I figured the weaver was some sort of small perching bird and I’ve heard the call of guineafowl before, but I was blown away by the secretary bird! I’ve never heard them call before, I had no idea it was so deep. This was super fun Steve!
Thank you for playing, Harrison and Evan! It's fun to explore the world of bird sounds, especially from unfamiliar areas. I'm glad you enjoy playing these games. I think we'll finish out the continents next year, plus New Zealand, and then not sure what's next for this series. We'll find out when the time comes. :)
The last one is definitely an egiption goose
Interesting field guide 🤩
I'm glad you liked it, Sinka! There are so many interesting things to learn about birds. Thanks for watching!
What's the name of the bird that was used as an example in the scenario
It's the same as the first example at 0:35, the Green Wood Hoopoe!
Sounds like a vlei loerie.
