The Karoo prinia or spotted prinia (Prinia maculosa)

These tiny and aggressive birds are most active in the morning, hunting for insects inside and underneath the bushes.

This photo is part of my "little brow bird" or LBB series to give tribute to the smaller shy birds that don't always get the recognition that they deserve for their role in the ecosystem.

I took this photo in a small nature reserve inside the city limits of Cape Town South Africa, a place with some awesome bird life called Intaka Island, it is well worth a visit!

I hope you enjoy this post and be prepared for more coming.

If you have any questions about photography or gear feel free to ask me, I am most comfortable with the Nikon systems, but I will help where I can.

Have a good day and don't forget to appreciate the small birds and animals that most people would just walk past and not think about again!
