Ek sien Joubert was nogal besig met sy kamera hier 😉. Natuurlik hou ek van die kleurvolle voëls – die “Saddle-billed Stork” is lieflik en ek hou ook van die naby foto van die “Red-crested Korhaan”. En jou eerste foto – is dit ‘n Bee-eater? – dis net so mooi!
Baie dankie, Corna! Ja, Joubert is regtig n ster agter die kamera. En jip, dit is n rooikeelbyvreter wat die skoenlapper verorber.
Maggies, dis ‘n groot verskeidenheid van voëls wat jul gesien het. Ek’t heerlik op my tyd almal deurgekyk. dankie weereens vir die pragtige versameling wat jul gedeel het.
Die verskeidenheid van voels in die Krugerwildtuin is nou maar een maak verstommend!
Amazing collection of photos!The brown hooded kingfisher would be my favourite . No spectacular coloring on this bird but he or she looks like a nice fellow.
Oh they are, unless you are something they’d like to turn into a meal, Anne. Despite their name the Brown-hooded Kingfisher hunts away from water, catching anything from insects to lizards!
Maybe you could send one here. We have an explosion of mosquitoes this summer and we had a nest of barn swallows that ate lots of them but they have flown and gone now.
A marvelous collection, and hooray for the Goliath Heron!
I’m glad we could include one of your favourite birds in the gallery, Babsje!
The Bee-eater image in your header is amazing!
Thank you very much, Brian!
The lilac-breasted roller is a beauty! Great photos, Joubert.
Thank you very much, Lois! I’ll pass your kind comment along.
I love the bee-eater!
Thanks a lot, Kathy! They’re such colourful, energetic birds!
