After a 4 days guiding assignment, I finally have the time to revisit the mangrove to do a little bit of photography. This mangrove patch has already degraded due to constant sand mining activity. The previous stakeout for birds had already been destroyed. So, I had to go to an alternative stakeout.



The most cooperative is the Ashy Tailorbird and the Blue-throated Bee-eater. The bee-eater was shy so I had to shoot from the car.


The photos were taken with a Nikon1 V1 + FT1 + Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 VR1
