Red-billed Helmetshrike
Prionops caniceps
The red-billed helmetshrike or chestnut-bellied helmetshrike (Prionops caniceps) is a species of bird in the Vanga family, Vangidae, formerly usually included in the Malaconotidae.
It is native to the Guinean Forests of West Africa. In Central Africa it is replaced by the rufous-bellied helmet-shrike (P. rufiventris); both are sometimes regarded as two subspecies of the "chestnut-bellied helmetshrike".
