this time for real no funny stuff, hehe. cant sleep a bit excited about going to the clean coasts of the khumra town, to the south, as it has been reported a persence of a large flock of greater flamingo, i was there last week did see any but hope to see many other birds and get better photos...

Quite pleased with this, as it flew over out I just pointed the camera at it and got off one shot, it wasn't until after this I realised I had the TC on, would never even have tried it if I'd known. Just goes to shown don't miss any opportunity, it doesn't cost anything shooting digital.
