Somali Grosbeak

Rhynchostruthus louisae Lort Phillips, 1897

The Somali Golden-winged Grosbeak or Somali Grosbeak (Rhynchostruthus louisae) is a finch endemic to northern Somalia. It is included as a subspecies in R. socotranus by some authorities, but in recent times the three golden-winged grosbeak populations are usually considered distinct species. Source: Wikipedia
