I know very little about rhe birds of Africa, including Madagascar, but wow, they're even more beautiful than I expected.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful array of birds and calls.
You're welcome!
Beautiful birds! You should publish a bird book called birds of the world!
Thanks, I think that has been done by others and better than I can do, but I appreciate the sentiment!
Stunning!
Thank you! 😊
Superb birds!
Great video. Thanks for sharing. A few questions please. Did you self drive or use a tour guide?
What camera/ lens do you use? Nice and clear!
I used Madacartour, Brilland is a great guide/fixer: www.madacartour.com/
I have a lumix G9 camera
Thanks very much for the prompt reply.
How did you see the broad billed roller. Was it a vagrant?
@@mudgedthey (= the nominate) are breeding in Madagascar and migrate to Africa outside the breeding season.
