Hi All

Back from a wonderful trip. Got 3 out of the 5 phantoms on our list and another phantom that was not even on the list Go thirty something lifers - just checking out the ID of a few of them to get exact number.

Got two mammal lifers too

Definitely a part of the country we will return to.

So what is the phantom in this photo

[Toko]

Sounds like phantomastic trip
