Hamerkop in the Morning Light

Although I have seen Hamerkop's frequently, it was not until I was able to observe unnoticed here at the hide at Lentorre Lodge's sister lodge.

 

They are extremely playful, picking up rocks, feathers etc. and repeatedly tossing them in the air. Unfortunately I did not get a shot of that activity that I was really fond of but did like this guy in the early morning warm light.
