I encountered these birds at the very foot of Ruwenzori, 

 in a small but thickly foliaged tree almost overhanging a 

 rushing mountain-torrent. On my firing a shot, at least 

 fifty of them flew out from the tree and from another 

 close by. At first I took them for Starlings, being 

 attracted to them by their incessant chattering. When 

 they flew, however, the reddish patch on their wings was 

 very conspicuous.
