Lunchtime Lifers.

We decided to take lunch at a waterhole that Modou Colley knew. The midday sun was blazing so i found a shaded spot and opened my tin off sardines and placed them in the fresh baked Loaf of bread i had bought at the previous village market. Such a simple lunch that turned into one of my most enjoyable lunches i have ever had.
 
The first visitor to get a drink was this Exclamatory Paradise Whydah
 
The very abundant Red-Billed Quelea kept dropping down at the water hole to drink.
 




 
This pair of Cut-Throat Finch was my third bonus sighting when they briefly perched on this dead tree.

 
The Cinnamon Bunting was the bird i really wanted to photograph just a shame i only got a record shot.
