#Beautiful #Botswana 🇧🇼 #Francistown During winter we normally have cold nights (0-5 °C) and beautiful warm (22-30°C) days. #Crested #Barbet is sunning itself to get warm. #BirdsSeenIn2021 #birds #nature #photography #goedemorgen #MagicalBotswana #ILoveBotswana

#Beautiful #Botswana 🇧🇼 #Francistown #Pied #Babbler A very common resident in our garden. I like them, they are fun, constantly "talking", and not too shy #BirdsSeenIn2021 #nature #photography #birdwatching #MagicalBotswana #ILoveBotswana

#Beautiful #Botswana 🇧🇼 #Francistown #Hamerkop made a surprise visit to the coffeeshop/garden center. Probably attracted by their little pond which seems to be full of frogs. #BirdsSeenIn2021 #nature #wildlife #MagicalBotswana #ILoveBotswana Enjoy your day!

#Beautiful #Botswana 🇧🇼 #Francistown I had been whistling its call and #PearlspottedOwl came to say hello. This caused great upset in the garden as the resident birds were not amused. #BirdsSeenIn2021 #BirdsOfPrey #nature #photography #goedemorgen #MagicalBotswana #ILoveBotswana
