Not so many species about today could hear many with their calls. but they where playing hard to shoot
Like this Striated Heron This lifted right in front of me 4 times as I followed it up the water way. the only shot I got was about 100 yards away then it was gone again.
.
Lots if the Crested Lark about in the sugar fields but only this one stopped close enough to get a shot at and then it was 50 yards away,
.
The farmers were inundating the crop fields today so there was an abundance of Cattle Egret and a few Little white Egrets. after seeing these photos on the blog I notice that there are 3 speicies of egret, see if you can.
and which is the 3rd species
.
.
something spooked them in this field most likely a rat as I am quite close to the rubbish that is dumped from the city along this waterway.
.
Just the one Little White Egret in this flock.
.
Those that did not fly to another field perched themselves in the date palm
notice how the are not watching me but whatever spooked them in the field.
.Closer to my flat. one of the young Kestrels there are two of them still here the parents seem to have left not been seen for a few days now.

The Egrets are beautiful, and the Crested Lark.
I don't know how you can live there Tony.
Love the Kestrel pics.
