Dear Whiteheadvulture

I didn't know where Accra is, I didn't know the German word for egret , I didn't know about the beautiful birds of Ghana. So I surfed your gallery and the internet and found out. Thank you so much for teaching me. Hope for more interesting and beautiful photos.
 
Thankyou SusanneH. I'm really only a novice myself but I am trying my best. If my pictures give you pleasure that makes it worthwhile. I will post more as my technique improves and the photo opportunities arise. Your language is spot on, I wish I could converse in a foreign language as proficiently.

That's a lovely picture you've taken of this small egret WHV.

Amazing how the angle of light changes his colours, isn't it. Many thanks for sharing this with us lad.
