  1. Great capture Posted 2 years ago
    1. Thanks! Years ago, in Namibia, I spent an evening trying to track one of these down, hearing at least 3 calling around me without ever so much catching a glimpse, while this time I found this bird in the lodge garden 5 minutes after setting out! Posted 2 years ago
