The red-faced mousebird (Urocolius indicus) is a species of mousebird or coly. It is a common in southern Africa from the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire), Zambia and Tanzania south to the Cape. Its habitat is savanna with thickets, fynbos scrub, other open woodland, gardens and orchards.
There are a total of five recognized subspecies:
Urocolius indicus mossambicus (Distribution: east Angola to southwest Tanzania and Malawi)
Urocolius indicus lacteifrons (Distribution: western Angola, north & central Namibia and western Botswana)
Urocolius indicus pallidus (Distribution: southeast Tanzania and northeast Mozambique)
Urocolius indicus transvaalensis (Distribution: Central and eastern Botswana and southwest Zambia to Mozambique and South Africa)
Urocolius indicus indicus (Distribution: south and central South Africa)
This bird is about 34 cm (13 in) long, with the tail comprising approximately half the length. The crested head and breast are pale cinnamon with a red bill and eye mask. The rest of the upperparts and tail are blue-grey apart from a paler grey rump. The belly is whitish. The sexes are similar, but juveniles lack the crest and have a green mask. Their call is tree-ree-ree whistle, and regularly called in multiple repetitions. Red-faced mousebirds make the same call whether in-flight or perched.
