I went to the birds?

Hey,  this week is a week off for the school and I am traveling to meet with contractors and playground suppliers as well as doing some long awaited internet work.  So no big items to really put out there this week so I treating you to some photos I have been taking for practice.  I have a lot of birds, though most of them are about the size of my thumb and some of Kilimanjaro and some flowers that are part of the trees around our site even a cat.  Before you ask, I don't know what type of birds they are or what type of flower it is.  I hope you enjoy.

I have started to recommend Tarangire more often because it is less expensive and the only vehicle crowding issues are at the lunch spots.  They have a great vi...
