   I was in the Gambia a few weeks ago to look at birds. I ended up photographing 197 species, of which 171 were new to me, plus some primates, insects, etc. I'll be posting some of the photos in a thread here, starting with owls today: Verreaux's Eagle Owl (juvenile) and Northern White-faced Owl (juvenile and adult) and a couple of Pearl-spotted Owlets in a next message
