Good Evening Everyone
I have posted my 2nd lot of shots from my trip the pick being Black-tailed Crake which was quite amusing in the fact that our guide laid down some mealworms in front of the reeds and rattled the tin that he bought them in. After about 10 mins a Grey-backed Shrike turned up and started calling and a couple of minutes after a pair of Black-tailed Crakes stepped out of the reeds and started feeding. Our guide told us this was a regular thing for the Shrike to do and my only guess is that the Crakes chomped on the mealworms and the Shrike came down and ate the scraps, I was in a Camouflage wrap for these photo’s and spent about half an hour on my knees waiting for the right moment to take these shots of the Crake and hobbled around like an old man afterwards. Anyway here is the usual link
