Rob and I visited a carmine bee- eater colony in The Gambia, 5 years  ago, and it was a sea of red...we didn't know where to look...it was marvellous. How great too that the birds in 3 and 4 were all at the petrol stop too, lol !! You can certainly feel the heat eminating from your picture number 5. I understand that there were few rains last year, in Botswana, and that they are  anticipating , with the El Nino effect that they will be both delayed and not much this year either. I know that 4 of the concession Delta camps have suspended their boat trips, currently , until further notice.</blockquote>
