This is what it looked like during our last visit that I posted. But by now all of the flamingos were gone, as they migrate every winter here to the warmer countries up north on the African Continent. They will return during the late spring season next year, as they breed here. Then their youngsters grow up during our summer season to be strong enough for the migration trip the next winter.

We were happy to see that the lake is full again, and even more water will be added to sustain it now during our winter, as we are in a winter rainfall area. So, today you will see no flamingos, and none of the other migratory birds, as we had to search for any local birds that we may find. There was no water to be seen here during our last visit, as we could walk in the area where the water is now.
Fortunally we found a few local birds that I will show you in here
