Square-tailed Drongo (Dicrurus ludwigii)

Sex; Male and female alike Age; Adult. Subspecies; work in progress. Udzungwa Mts., July 2007. Copyright@; Louis A. Hansen. In the hand a very fine bluish shin can be seen which is not illustrated in books and as here difficult to see in the field. Would guess this is a female as this is more dull (though books mention the sex to be alike) greyish coloured underparts or alternatively a younger bird.
