The Karoo Prinia

The Karoo Prinia or Spotted Prinia is a small passerine bird. This prinia is a southern African endemic resident breeder in Namibia, South Africa, Lesotho, and Swaziland.

It is a species of karoo scrub, fynbos and bracken covered slopes in semi-desert and mountains. The former eastern subspecies ''P. m. hypoxantha'' is now usually considered to be a separate species, the Drakensberg Prinia, ''P. hypoxantha''.
