Description

Some sort of tinker barbet (yes BirdLife treats the african barbets in the toucan family which sort of bugs me)

Ha, I just clicked on this, not seeing who uploaded it, about to comment that I'm pretty sure this isn't a toucan. If you've narrowed it down to the tinker barbets, I think you're looking within the Pogoniulus genus.

Or, what do you think about a yellow-spotted barbet (Buccanodon duchaillui) ID? Looks very likely to me.
