Pirang & Fantaba Bush Track
This was my least productive day photographically. Although we did manage to see (and get 'record' shots of) a decent variety of species, including Black-crowned Crane, Quailfinch, Grasshopper Buzzard, Yellow Penduline Tit, Little Weaver and Chestnut-backed Sparrow-Lark, most of them were too distant or the lighting conditions too poor to enable me to get very many good quality shots.
Crested Lark (Galerida cristata)
This Crested Lark was one of the exceptions. It sat and sang quite happily while I slowly approached to the minimum focusing distance of my 600mm lens.
Abyssinian Roller (Coracias abyssiniica)
Grey-headed Sparrow (Passer griseus)
