Re: Garden Bird Pics!!
Nan, you have some incredible birds in your garden
I have quite a few, but this (I think) is the most spectacular from our garden at Port Edward:
Trumpeter hornbill

Re: Garden Bird Pics!!
When I saw it I was all excited and sure that before I could grab the camera it would have been gone......but I was lucky
I must add though that Port Edward is not exactly a town ....The sea in front and a nature reserve behind, so it is not actually a +garden bird", but it was in my garden

Re: Garden Bird Pics!!
Some more from me.
I waited every morning for two weeks to catch this guy.
Wood Hoopoe.
My one and only Southern Red Bishop that I have seen near my house.
A young Grey Hornbill that we have not seen again.
I am off to see BIG BIrds flying at Swartkops Air Base tomorrow.
