Thanks again for all the comments \O

This episode will be about birds. The problem with birds is, that they often don't sit still or if I wanted to take a pic of one flying off.. I just caught a tiny bit of a wing in the pic =O: =O: Well, we still had fun and surely we got some nice pics of birds. ;-)

Like this Bateleur couple, my favourite raptor

Sunset Dam, always delivers great opportunities to take bird pics.

Another favourite bird, just love its colours: LBR

We were lucky to find this beauty, African Barred Owlet. Can you imagine, that some people were not interested in it at all and even if I told them what we were lucky at and that she got a kill, they just drove off. Okay one couple stayed and were really happy! O**

Another highlight for us was this secretary bird

and the last pic, guess who O**
