Alan set today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme as #ABCD. I felt like overachieving, so here’s an #AmericanAvocet party, a #BrahminyKite on the move, a #CapeWeaver having a snack, and a #ForkTailedDrongo striking a pose. #birds #travel #SriLanka #SouthAfrica #WildlifePhotography #ECK

Rob's theme for #BirdOfTheDay is #BestOfTheMonth. I was shocked by how few photos I had for August. At least edited.

All three of these birds were photographed on the famous #Zaagkuilsdrift rd in Limpopo. A must visit.

For @javajanegallery.co.uk’s excellent #SmallBirdSaturday, may I highlight the wonderful #ForkTailedDrongo? Our guides told us this little bird can mimic the calls of other animals to scare away predators and also to steal food from other birds. Fascinating! #travel #birds #WildlifePhotography #ECK

For AB’s #BirdOfTheDay theme of #silhouette I choose this very backlit #ForkTailedDrongo. The silhouette really emphasizes its forked tail. #birds #travel #SouthAfrica #WildliifePhotography #ECK
