You have a perfect vantage point from your window. As bad as these birds are, the still fascinate me. X#X

Great pictures Leachy ^Q^ ^Q^ ^Q^

Please forgive me - I am not the biggest birder - but I try. Last week one of these critters flew into my office, and it was something else to try and get it out without hurting itself too much

This a Grey-headed Bush-Shrike? Is it really a "Spookvoël" in afrikaans?
