Cape White-eye

White-eyes, Yuhinas are birds living the forests of Africa, Asia, and many islands of the Pacific. White-eyes all have a brush-tipped tongue and a fondness for nectar as a supplement to fruits and insects. Yuhinas are generally crested birds in plumages of greys or brown with a bit of contrasting patterns often around the face. They are highly social.

The family is Zosteropidae
