Picture info: |
Blot 5-6. fund i Etiopien. Jeg så 3 fugle sammen denne dag (ad han ,ad hun og en 1k han) - samme sted som jeg fandt en 1k hun i december 2010!
Only 5th or 6th record for Ethiopia.
This species is perhaps overlooked?
Although in the neighboring countries there are also very few records (Eritrea 3, Somalia at least 2 and apparently none in Kenya?)
3 birds (ad male, ad female and 1cy male) were seen in the same small area (20 x 20 m) at lake Ziway, exactly the same place where I saw (and photographed) an 1cy female Little Crake in December 2010! |
