All the birds on todays walk, I blog what I see not just for you but for what I should be looking for next year. like the European bee eater only here for a week so now will have to wait for next year that's if they stop here in Luxor, for instance last year I only glimpsed and got 3 shots of the rare visitor the striated Heron this year I have seen many and got some good shots. the book says they do not always visit the Nile delta preferring the mangroves of the red sea area, so I was a lucky seeing them in my area,
