1. Pitta reichenowi = " (green-breasted pitta)

The Green-breasted Pitta (Pitta reichenowi) is a dazzling bird, a vibrant jewel of the African rainforest. Its plumage is a masterpiece of emerald green, fiery scarlet, and inky black, accented by a white throat and iridescent blue-spotted wings. This captivating creature moves with a graceful stealth through the forest undergrowth, its presence a fleeting flash of color.
Order: Passeriformes > Family: Pittidae > Genus: Pitta > Species: Pitta reichenowi


2. Pitta longipennis = Pitta angolensis longipennis (African pitta)

The African pitta (Pitta angolensis) is a vibrant and elusive bird, easily identified by its dazzling plumage. With a black crown and face, offset by a pale salmon-pink throat, it’s a visual delight. Mustard-yellow flanks and breast contrast vividly with its crimson red belly and undertail coverts. These striking colors make it a sought-after sight among birdwatchers, although the African pitta's shy nature often makes it difficult to spot.
