First 100s down next is on arrival! Congratulations!

There is a delay due to air traffic control. It may take more than 3 months for the next 100. Unless I find any EBCs when processing, that is it for KTP.

Congrats on the century, lovely birds from KTP, a place I would love to go back sometime.

I assume you mean the Lanner Peter? We were at a waterhole waiting for 4 cheetah to come for a drink. I think everyone else missed it as they were watching the cheetah and not the hole…

Congratulations on your first #100, great shots from KTP, especially the raptors. Love the Pygmy, a firm favourite of mine. Very cool Lanners too. Have never seen a Thickknee chick, very special.

I had only just arrived and this happened above the visitor centre. Not the best camera set up for overhead shots, but my first ever photo of this species, so still pretty please
