Dear all
yesterday (3/11) while looking at a big group of Athi Short-toed
Larks and White-tailed Larks in the Athi basin, a strange "Tchuk"
from one of the bushes caught my attention.
when looking on the source of the call, expecting to see an Olivacous
Warbler, a bigger bird with a black tail that kept on moving
sideways, was seen.
this was an Upcher's Warbler that was jumping inside the bushes.
other note worthy species were:
Open-billed Stork
Black Stork
and a day earlier in Peponi dam, together with Gordon Boy and Tom
Heaton, a Temminck's Stint was spotted.
happy birding to all
Itai
