I came across some simply stunning images of birds taken in the
Kruger National Park by London based photographer
Luke Robinson and he kindly agreed that I could share a few of them with our readers.
These photographs were originally published on Luke's own website Mortal Coil, where he wrties:
On our self-drive safari adventure in Kruger National Park we were amazed at the sheer variety and exoticism of the birds we saw. Apparently over 400 species (resident and migratory) call Kruger home, at least for part of the year. The park is really well set-up for birdwatching, with many hides set up next to waterholes and so on, and while I would not in any way call myself a twitcher, I did at least take an interest in what birds crossed paths with me, which is more than I can say at other times in my life.
In any event, we were lucky enough to encounter these fellows during our time in Kruger:
