Thanx Lizzy, only the day before this pic we saw our first ever Pied... sadly the pics was terrible because of all the excitement... luckily we saw lots more there at Augrabies, what a magical place!

More pics of the same Pied.

White-eared Barbets we spotted in St.Lucia October 2013. It was our first and only time... it was raining too, so not great pics
