AFRICAN SPOONBILL // PLATALEA LEUCORODIA (91cm)

            GAMBIA  TOUR  2018.
========================
PLEASE PICTURE THIS SCENE!!!
===============================
20 odd spoonbills, 20 odd sacred ibis, 6 yellow billed storks, 8 black herons, 2 pink backed pelicans ! All in one small pool, about half the size of a football pitch, and every minute, one of them would pull out a largish fish, they must have found the pool, laded with fish, just before we did. It was pure heaven for them and us, we spent hours  at this spot, returning each day, and each day the fish were getting smaller. Thats what you call being in the right place at the right time!
+++++++++++++++++++++

Do hope you are all well, please stay Safe, God Bless   .................Tomx
