The red-billed quelea is considered to be the world’s most numerous bird-species. These seed-eaters occur in huge flocks, sometimes numbering in the millions, and move around seasonally in search of food. These pictures were taken in April of this year, near Satara in the Kruger National Park in South Africa.
