Many of the endemic species you can find on the western and south-eastern highland plateau are common and surprisingly easy to see, even in the environs of a city.
Endemic species like the heavy-headed thick-billed raven, the wattled ibis (with its raucous call and unsightly habit of clasping its partner's wattles and pulling), the black-winged lovebird (which whirrs through the sky like a small helicopter) and the white-collared pigeon (a fregile grey bird with a white collar and white wing patches).
