Here are a bunch of birds we saw and only one bird that I could not find, nor remember, the name of and that photo is a little blurry and the only photo I have of him/her. Blurry Bird, I could not find the name of this guy Black Faced Sandgrouse Crowned Plover Great Blue Heron Immature Bateleur Eagle Lilac Breasted Roller, National Bird of Kenya Red Billed Hornbill Red Billed Hornbill....again Red Billed Hornbill and Lilac Breasted Roller in the same tree Secretary Bird Superb Starling Taita Fiscal Tawney Eagle, I could have used my big lens for this guy White Bellied Bustard White Bellied Go Away Bird, not a great pic but he was very unique and very far away White Headed Buffalo Weaver White Headed Buffalo Weaver Nest Yellow Necked Spurfowl and chicks Yellow Necked Spurfowl That's it for the bird pics! See you soon....
