PESO: Invaders!

2023-03-05 Thread Alan C
We were graced by the appearance of Guinea Fowl with chicks. They have a 
hard time around here with all the feral cats. However we have had 518mm 
rain in Feb. (a record) so the bush is very dense which gives them 
better protection. Probably some of the older ones remembered being fed 
here last year. They are still very skittish so I had to move very 
slowly to get a few grabs.

Nice one Alan!

Saw lots of those, sometimes in flocks of hundreds, last year in the Kalahari 
Desert (Deception Valley, Botswana).
