I never paid much attention to birds, but our guide, William, turned birds
into a new fascination in my life.
There are so many different kinds of birds in
Africa!

It took me a while to get this black-collared barbet on film!
While this one seemed to be visiting with me.

Storks are everywhere, like this saddle-billed one.
There were also owls,
and the most majestic of them all:
Eagles
I saw many common birds, unidentified, but just as beautiful,
like this lonely one which seemed to be thinking of magnificent landscapes seen
from the sky.
