Birds Gambia - a few birds

[dragonsdreams]

Lucky enough spent a week in the Gambia recently - at Mandina Lodges in Makasutu Forest.

I think these are: senegal parrot, swallow-tailed bee-eater, splendid sunbird, little bee-eater. Some fantastic bird life around the River Gambia.

Beautiful shots Mark! I'll definitely have to put Gambia on my wish list, although I expect I'll be outvoted for Disney Land! I've received your email, just been very busy the last couple of weeks with moving. Mostly settled now though so I'll reply soon. I hope you've had a lovely Easter.

Thanks Tim. Hope your house move went okay, I'll bet you're glad that it's all over. Hope you had a good break too, though I'm sure you've been very busy.
