More birds from Burkina

Here are a few more snaps of birds I took while driving on my travels the last week or so. Some of them aren't brilliant, but they give you an idea of the birdlife that is around.

1. Stork. This species appears at the start of each rainy season.
2. Cattle egret

3. Cattle egret again. I like this photo
4. Vultures at the abbatoir, clearing up after the morning's work
5. Another bird... anyone any ideas what this is...? I do have a bird book in Gorom, but haven't had the time to look at it...

6. Some kind of kite I think
7. Parrot
