  Love those Kori Bustards!
  Another southern yellow-billed Hornbill.
  This francolin mother ( Red-billed spurfowl ) and chicks just would not get off the road.
  3 vehicles had to bush bash around them!
  Fred knows this one. Crested barbet.
  Speckled Mousebirds. Collius striatus.
  Fred knows this one also!
  After my EHRA 2 week volunteer project (second time) with desert elephants in Namibia in May, I joined up with Russell Frankish of Greenbushpig Safaris, guide for Britz Rentals self drive 4WD, on a 13 day tour of Botswana from Johannesburg to Victoria Falls and return.
  I actually photographed this Southern Ground Hornbill in Kruger Park in July 2009.
  If you love your birds like I do, then hit the share icon below and spread your love!
  Weird how the bustard and darter are almost identical to their Aussie counterparts!!
  And ... LOVED that hornbill the first time round, still love it!!!
  Loved the birds Jim and Noah enjoyed them too! He's amazed by "nature" and animals well anything science and history related, so I share a lot of your pictures with him. (he's 11)
  I do a little of bird watching. But I didnt know there was something called a mousebird or a hammerkop. Thank you for educating me Jim.
  Colourful,fascinating a subject of my interest,I love birds,wings of God.
  I love the Eagles and the Ground hornbill. The little colorful bird is one I have seen before but I would need to ask Fred what the name was. I think birds are so amazing..the colors, shapes and the ability to fly....wow

  Brownie points for Leigh too with the Lilac-breasted Roller.
  I guess you want/need help? Not just with birds as I recall. Making breakfast Coffee too. Folks he was rubbish at making a fire but he redeemed himself with a "Chicken" Curry. Not all that sure it was Chicken but it WAS Curry.
  OK. To the birds.
  Kori (no "s") Bustard.
  Red-billed Spurfowl with the chicks, Francolin is fine though.
  Your Grey Hornbill is actually another Southern Yellow-billed. Flying Banana.
  The one you asked for is Crested Barbet and the Mousebird is a Speckled Mousebird. Collius striatus. Not only is there such a bird as a Mousebird but there are actually six species in Africa.
  Aww thanks everyone. I totally agree that birds are wonderful for photography!
  Leigh, that was a good identification from you!
  Thanks Fred and Liz for helping correct and identify all the birds.
  Fred and Liz from Isle of Man were travelling companions and helped add a huge amount of interest to our safari as Fred is a walking encyclopeia on birds. But he's no good on coffee making either!
