Thanks Toko, Lis, Flutts and Pumbaa. \O

The next visit I made was last Sunday when I was joined by Amoli. I still have to process the images.

I thoroughly enjoyed the outing BT - you are a true birder - we hardly spoke ten words... lol lol

I will sort through my pics, and first wait for you to post yours.... --00--

I am sold on that 600 lens of yours, and will save up to buy myself one - great pics you took with it. \O

Nonsense, I'm sure we said eleven words lol

I'm having fun with software at the moment, editing my images has become a challenge due to various software versions and compatibility. I'm hoping I'll be able to get going tonight.

Oops, I meant to post these pictures weeks ago. This was the visit where I was accompanied by Amoli.

First up a Dabchick chick.

With Mom or Dad.

My first Flamingos at Rondebult.

Redbilled Teal.

Spurwing Goose.

Black Heron in gorgeous light.

Then a Coot standoff.

Suddenly - a kick to the head, a move Miss Piggy would have been proud of!
