Why footage is worth so much here
Most of what has been written about Gymnogene behaviour rests on someone watching once and writing it down afterwards. Video changes what we can do with an observation.
Thirty seconds of a bird working into a weaver colony, feeding a chick, or hanging off a wall can be watched again, timed, and set alongside other records. A photograph of a bird with prey tells us what it is eating. Even a shaky phone clip of one being mobbed is more use than a written note.
If you can film it, please do. There is no such thing as footage too ordinary.

Photos upload straight here. Video files are too big, so put yours on YouTube, Google Drive, Dropbox or WeTransfer and paste the link. Check the sharing setting allows anyone with the link to open it.
Logging a sighting instead?
If you want to record an actual sighting, with date, place and behaviour, use the main form. It takes photos and a video link as well, so there is no need to do both.
