Pink-throated Twinspot

The Pink-throated Twinspot adult male has brown upperparts, rose-pink facial and breast plumage, and a black belly, giving it a strongly contrasting appearance. Its back and folded wings are largely plain brown, its tail is dark brown, and rounded pinkish-white spots pattern the black flanks. A defining rose-pink throat merges with the cheeks and breast beneath a gray-brown crown.
