The bulbuls are a widespread family of songbirds, found much over Africa and Asia.
The Common Bulbul has a number of subspecies; some authorities consider P. b. dodsoni (Dodson’s Bulbul), P. b. somaliensis (Somali Bulbul) and P. b. tricolor (Dark-capped Bulbul) as separate species from the nominate P. b. barbatus.
Greenbuls are very difficult to identify, and there are a lot of different species. This one was in a tree by a road near Buhoma.

Red-vented Bulbuls are a common introduced species considered detrimental to native birds. I didn't really have much time for bird photography while we were there; these are a couple of quick shots that I snapped on our last day. Not great, but the best I could do. Adding it to the Field Guide as a French Polynesia record.
