Regular annual N-S migration in W Africa, moving S in Sept just after rains to breed along forest edge and
woodland adjoining Guinea and Upper Congo forests. At recommencement of rains in Mar moves N into drier,
more open savanna, where little studied. Movements in C & NE Africa not as obvious or well understood;
possibly separate population in N Angola and SW Zaire. (del Hoyo J, Elliott A, Sargatal J (eds),
