-SENEGAL PARROT / KOTU / GAMBIA.
Found this beauty nesting in a dead palm tree, but do not normally in this area, so was very nice to see,it was giving me some high pitched whistles, and a quarrelsome screech, so new I was not wanted, and soon left her to it, after a few more shots.
Called a Senegal parrot only because it was first identified in that country, about 38 Cm in length, normally keeps to the top of tall trees so this was going to be my best opportunity of a close encounter, and a half descent image.
Have got so many more images to show, all the small birds, and they are small, and a lot of sunbirds, but am building up a store of local ones to show, will show about ten more then switch.
Thanks for your visit,it is appreciated, and if time please leave a comment.......Tomx
