You have done things most people only dream about. I love your life. Great video.

Thanks Pypermarru1 for commenting

I should have added names to the birds. The colourful one is a Bee eater, the gray one, i only know the german version " Ovambo Sperber" Then we had at the end the read headed amandine, in between dwar´f falcons, eagles, striped runner birds, in german a giant Trappe and gackeltrappe, some weaver birds and starlings, black tailed trongo, piriwit, and others...

You can look up some in google

A second film will follow soon. Interest in my wildlife is not so great here, wonder what should i post ????

Oh Georg you have some wonderful photos here. I just love seeing all the colorful birds, so many of which I have never seen before. It makes me want to go to the library and get a book about the birds of Africa.
