Blue-headed bee eater

The blue-headed bee-eater is a species which is found (as the map shows) in forest habitats in tropical West and Central Africa, including in Cameroon, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, and Kenya.

While this bird is also listed as least concern, there is a decline that has been noted, likely as a result of loss of rainforest.
