Dear All,
I have been unable to send this few sightings earlier
On the 1st and 2nd September while in lake Nakuru park I was thrilled by the numbers of flamingo on
the lake, just two weeks before, Pelican numbers greatly overwhelmed that of Flamingos which I estimated to be less than
two thousand. On this day they were well over half a million!
Great to see the lake, regain her glowing glory.
Other
notable species on this non birding tour were; one Ringed-plover, Several
Curlew Sandpipers, many Little Stint, three Avocet, one Woolly-necked Stork,
one European Stork, Green and Wood Sandpipers, several tired Ruff.
On 20th
September I saw again, most likely the same three Avocet
On 23rd
I saw my first wintering Yellow Wagtail this year in Samburu reserve
Great birding
Selempo
