Black Stork flyover

Black Stork flyover (Ciconia nigra)

As promised, three lifers today. We didn't ever get closer to these three, so the shots aren't all that great, but still ...

The Black Storks were passing through on migration. We didn't see any on the ground, so I'm extra happy that my little camera decided to be cooperative and give me a decent flight shot of this one.

Oooh!! Exciting day for Lifers then.

A super picture - I'm so pleased your camera co-operated for this one Ann. That's really pretty good for a small camera - well done lassie.

Oh... and can I go with you next year then!!?;)
