Good morning. Few Ringed Plovers about at the moment in the Gambia. This one was taken at Tanji. I have not posted one from here before, I'm used to them having an orange beak in the UK.

Good morning. Surprisingly not posted one of these Wattled Plovers before maybe because it's fairly common, but a nice looking bird. Kotu Bridge the #Gambia.

Good evening. Birding was slow today but there is always some wildlife to be seen. Few Dragonflies amongst the Butterflies in the Kotu area #Gambia today. This one stood out it's a Portia Widow I think.

Good morning. Another bird I've not posted before a Whimbrel. Recently taken Tanji fishing village & at Kotu bridge the #Gambia. Surprised how many migratory waders have a few birds stay over in the year.

Good afternoon. Great to see plenty of little Bee-eaters still about today in the Palma Rima area Kotu the #Gambia. Always makes me smile how they toss the bees about.

Have been trying for a male Northern Red Bishop in breeding plumage for a while, finally got one yesterday at Kartong on the #Gambia southern border. Bird was ringed probably from Kartong bird observatory.
