Honestly, I did not change the order of the birds, and this one is even more beautiful so it deserves to share the #100 place . Also because it is the official bird of Uganda.   BY 100 (+1)

Good to see you contributing (#061) to Zvezda's BY Alex :P

Of course, if you hadn't been there to carry the equipment her arms would have been too tired for all those lovely BIF shots.

Ah, there they are finally, your Ugandan birds. Great stuff! Why not count the White-Breasted Cormorant ("lucidus")? OTOH, I´m doubtful about your Black Kite, could just as well be a juv. Yellow-Billed.
