1701 is a starling.
1736 is a Crowned Plover.
The pics from 1703 thru 1727 are where we had our picnic that day.
1735 is the rare Zebra Pushme-Pullue.
Kenya and Tanzania, Summer 2000.
Stills from digital video camera.
640x480 JPEG, mostly unretouched.
Missing numbers are due to chopping
out non-animal pictures (such as
scenery, plant life, etc.)
Released to the Public Domain,
but I would appriciate hearing about
commercial use of the photos.

| The Crowned Lapwing, Vanellus coronatus (also "Crowned Plover") occurs from the Red Sea coast of Somalia to southern and south western Africa. It is related to the more localised Black-winged and Senegal Lapwings with which it shares some plumage characteristics. |
