Swallow-tailed Kite and Lesser Kestrel roost, Senegal. Previous counts of this roost have yielded 16,000 Kites and 26,000 Kestrels! We also saw an Osprey roosting with them. |
Red-necked Falcon top left of photo presumably leaving the roost. |
Same three photos each one just slightly cropped to try and show the atmosphere of the roost but I don't think they do. |
It felt a bit like being on Inner Farne when all the Arctic Terns are up in the air. |
