I think so, the Red-eyed is found more to the central and Western side of the country.

Lovely, Harry!
Pretty hibiscus and the other one is even better, but I don't know the name

When I try to get "geelvink" translated, it says goldfinch or bullfinch, but as those two do not exist in SA, it must be something else. It looks like a weaver or a canary

It looks like a Southern Masked Weaver if I look at the nests and the male
