Thanks very much Dewi and nan.

Here are the rest of the best that I have.

A Cape-glossy starling coming in to land.

A ring-necked dove taking off.
Image

Red-winged starlings.
Image

A masked weaver (I think) landing between two doves.
Image

Then at last, after weeks of waiting, I managed to get some shots of the very elusive and timid green wood-hoopoe.
Image

My best fly past photo.
Image

My BEEEG problem with this location is the horrible dark background which makes good shots very difficult to take.

We had the privilege of the Grey Hornbill coming to visit today and I was fortunate enough to fire off two shots of him as he flew off.

Image

Both shot at 1/2000 f5.6 and iso 500 with Sigma 300ml lens.

Any improvements I could have made - please feel free to comment.
