SENEGAL COUCAL // CENTROPUS SENEGALESIS (39cm)

GAMBIA TOUR feb. 2020

====================

MY ADOPTED bird of the Gambia, not the prettiest, not rare, but a real character none the less, do not feel I have been to the country until I see one. Perches at medium height, calls like the sound of the glugging of a water bottle being emptied , it flicks its tail sideways often, and is quite approachable. Also spends a considerable amount of its time on the round creeping amongst low tangled undergrowth. A real joy to see this.

===========================================

THANK YOU FOR YOUR FRIENDSHIP, in these very testing times, please stay well and safe, God bless....................Tomx
