As Judith, my daughter and I made our way across the Shire River in Malawi 2014,
these are some of the birds we saw from the boat. There is the Grey Hornbill, African Openbill(L) & African Darter (R), White-crested Helmetshrike, Brown-headed Parrot and finally a video of White-faced Whistling Ducks in flight.
If the video does not appear,CLICK HERE.
I am linking with WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY.
I hope you enjoyed seeing these birds and I have some more to show you next Tuesday, (WBW.) This year when I was in Malawi, Judith and I did a canoe safari which was wonderful and some time in the future you will see those posts.
Many thanks for your visit and also to all those people who leave comments.
Wonderful bird photos!
ReplyDeleteJudging by the stripes on that rock, it is a favoured perch.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos as always of birds I will probably never see. Thank you.
The video is the best, you should get a prize for it. Lovely birds.

Wonderful shots. I can see you like photographing birds.
ReplyDeleteHi Margaret,
ReplyDeleteyou have with your daughter spotted some beautiful birds. I've never seen a Grey Hornbill, but also your other beautiful birds I would like zient once the lens.
Greetings, Helma
Firstly Margaret, I love your Puffin header. It fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI also enjoyed seeing all of your photo's... especially the hornbill, which reminded me of my time living in Brunei and the hornbill's flying in every afternoon and early evening to feed near our house. It was a spectacular sight.
Thanks for sharing
Fascinating looking birds!
ReplyDeleteThose birds are awesome, and they are so big. I am amazed most specially with the big black birds. I guess food is abundant in that area. Thanks also for dropping by my site.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images of the birds. That scenery is spectacular!
ReplyDeleteIt is always interesting to see your shots of birds you have seen on your travels. The hornbill is an amazing looking fellow.
ReplyDeleteHave you reached the point where you can actually name these birds as you see them or do you need to look them up once you download the pictures like me. Of course it has been awhile since I have traveled so I haven't had to use my book in some time. These are most interesting birds ... none of which I have heard of or seen before. Though I will probably never remember the names, I am grateful to you for showing them to me ... I so love nature and all it's diversity :)
