Very large, primarily ground-based cuckoo. Adults are streaked rusty brown in nonbreeding plumage. In breeding plumage the head and front are black. They can fly, but are more typically seen running/flapping across roads, or clumsily crashing into dense vegetation. Unlike many cuckoos this species builds its own nest and does not lay eggs in nests of other species. Voice is a familiar repeated ‘whoop,’ and a screeching cat-like hiss. (eBird)

We heard coucals many times during our trip, but this was one of the very few times we actually saw one. It was in the midst of its morning ablutions and sun bath (hence the ruffled feathers on its back), when we came around the bend in the river. It stopped briefly to peer at us, determined we were not a threat (it was far away and very high), and went back to its bath.

La pastora de Ipiñaburu (Zeanuri) Puy Arrieta y esposa del pastor Jon Etxebarria volvió a subir con su rebaño a las verdes campas de Aldaminazpi, en Gorbeia. Será en esos parajes donde residirá el rebaño hasta finales de octubre, siguiendo la tradición de la trashumancia, que esta pareja mantiene viva en el valle desde hace unos cuantos años. Aprovechando la circunstancia, el grupo Ipiñaburuko Artzain Taldea ha vuelto a organizar una excursión para acompañar a la pastora hasta la residencia de verano de este rebaño numeroso. La comitiva partió a las 9.00 horas desde la cuadra de Ipiñaburu para al de unas horas llegar a Aldaminazpi.
Tres horas más tarde, pasado el mediodía, la expedición encabezada por las ovejas habrá llegado a las campas de Aldaminazpi. Será tiempo para comer un hamaiketako después de una mañana pasada por un sirimiri constante. La comitiva estuvo formada por jóvenes y adultos que disfrutaron de una mañana excelente en un lugar de encanto como es el parque natural de Gorbeia.
En esta imagen Puy saluda a los vecinos de Lambreabe al paso del rebaño por esa barriada de Zeanuri.
Thanks for the visits, faves and comments its greatly appreciated.

Pelicans are a genus of large water birds that make up the family Pelecanidae. They are characterised by a long beak and a large throat pouch used for catching prey and draining water from the scooped-up contents before swallowing. They have predominantly pale plumage, the exceptions being the brown and Peruvian pelicans. The bills, pouches, and bare facial skin of all species become brightly coloured before the breeding season. The eight living pelican species have a patchy global distribution, ranging latitudinally from the tropics to the temperate zone, though they are absent from interior South America and from polar regions and the open ocean. Pelicans frequent inland and coastal waters, where they feed principally on fish, catching them at or near the water surface. They are gregarious birds, travelling in flocks, hunting cooperatively, and breeding colonially. Four white-plumaged species tend to nest on the ground, and four brown or grey-plumaged species nest mainly in trees. The relationship between pelicans and people has often been contentious. The birds have been persecuted because of their perceived competition with commercial and recreational fishing. Their populations have fallen through habitat destruction, disturbance, and environmental pollution, and three species are of conservation concern. They also have a long history of cultural significance in mythology, and in Christian and heraldic iconography. 61272
The flycatchers perch on the fences looking for bugs; they fly off and come back further down the fence.

The East African Eland, a sub-species of the Common Eland, is a savannah and plains antelope found in East and Southern Africa. It is a species of the family Bovidae and genus Taurotragus. An adult male is around 1.6 metres tall at the shoulder (females are 20 centimetres shorter) and can weigh up to 942 kg. It is the second largest antelope in the world, being slightly smaller on average than the giant eland.
Mainly an herbivore, its diet is primarily grasses and leaves. Common elands form herds of up to 500 animals, but are not territorial. The common eland prefers habitats with a wide variety of flowering plants such as savannah, woodlands, and open and montane grasslands; it avoids dense forests.
The Common Eland is used by humans for leather, meat and milk, and has been domesticated in many areas. Eland milk contains much more butterfat than cow milk, and can keep much longer without pasteurising.

The masked lapwing (Vanellus miles), also known as the masked plover and often called the spur-winged plover or just plover in its native range, is a large, common and conspicuous bird native to Australia, particularly the northern and eastern parts of the continent, New Zealand and New Guinea. It spends most of its time on the ground searching for food such as insects and worms and has several distinctive calls. There are two subspecies; the southern novaehollandiae has distinctive black markings on the shoulder and side of the chest, and is sometimes recognized as a separate species, the black-shouldered lapwing (Vanellus novaehollandiae). These brown-black, white and yellow plovers are common in Australian fields and open land. The masked lapwing is the largest representative of the family Charadriidae. It measures from 30 to 37 cm in length and has a wingspan of 75–85 cm. The nominate subspecies (V. m. miles) weighs 191–300 g, while the southern race (V. m. novaehollandiae) is larger and weighs 296–412 g. The birds have a wide range of calls which can be heard at any time of the day or night: the warning call, a loud defending call, courtship calls, calls to its young, and others. Since this bird lives on the ground it is always alert and even though it rests it never sleeps properly. Masked lapwings are most common around the edges of wetlands and in other moist, open environments, but are adaptable and can often be found in surprisingly arid areas. They can also be found on beaches and coastlines. 41891

This must be one of the most difficult birds to photograph. The contrast between the head and back, and the white/salmon underparts make this especially difficult in bright sunlight. To get the bottle green of the head to show requires a bit of fancy post-processing. Sometimes it's better to photograph them when it's cloudy
An incredibly striking raptor, photographed in the Kruger National Park, South Africa, May 2019. It is related to eagles.
Juvenile and flight shots follow in the album.
A small, round, brownish owl that is often active by day. It has white speckles on its back and tail; white spots (not bars) on the crown and head are diagnostic. The presence of white-ringed, black blobs on the back of the head give the impression of “false eyes”. Singles and pairs are common in moist and arid wooded savanna, including near villages. It calls an accelerating series of upslurred, piping “fwooo” notes, followed by a set of downward “puuueeeww” whistles. The similar African Barred Owlet is larger; it has bars (not spots) on the head, and it lacks “false eyes”. (eBird)

He just looks so worried, with the frown and the big sad eyes. So wonderful to see him sitting here in the open, very near to our lodge so that we had time and opportunity to admire him.
Also, it was the first and only time that we saw this lovely species.
