I trust you're all having a great week this far. We're on our way back to Tanzania tomorrow morning early, arriving home in Mwadui on Friday.
Jo, beautiful series of birds. I would love to see them all myself someday. Great sightings and photos. Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteA great series of birds indeed!! So colorful! Love your captures for the day, Jo! Hope your week is going well!!
ReplyDeleteThat's definitively not a post for Arthur ! Beautiful pictures though !
ReplyDeleteHi Jo:
ReplyDeleteIt's just delightful to see all your little birds. I've been out of touch for a while, but will stop in again soon...:)
I've never seen such a colorful goose. Beautiful birds, all of them. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteThe Egyptian goose is a treat as are all the other colourful birds of your area. I would love to watch a weaver bird building a nest or that wonderful sunbird flashing among the leaves. I always find cranes to be rather mysterious birds and the thrush is a darling too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo for showing us that which we cannot see for ourselves. Although there are many birds that visit many parts of the world, it is the specific regional ones that i find so very special.
Have a good flight back to your second home.
Wonderful birds all of them! I love the falcon.
