More Birds

Once I get started, it seems I cannot stop.
Maybe I should go back to Africa to photograph more birds.
There are uncounted more which remained unpicturecd.



The "White Headed Vulture"
sits on, or near, the highest observation point, 
from where he can see "and smell"
carrion from up to 10 km away.


The soulful, sad call of the "Mourning Dove"
can either keep you awake or send you off to sleep
with its seemingly unending repetitious calling.


"Burchell's Glossy Starling" changes colour 
from greenish-blue to blueish-green
depending on the angle in which the sunlight hits it.



The "Little Bee Eater" makes bees his/her almost exclusive meal.


Once more: The "Purple Breasted Roller."
Shown again because it is so beautiful.


This may also be its second appearance


and last but not least, The "Sparrow - Weaver"
