Happiness settles in the heart of the Masai Mara
Hello Catherine and Bernard,
With the quality of your photos and your partner’s knowledge in this field, we’re eagerly waiting for the album dedicated to Ethiopian birds. Which regions did you visit? If it’s published, we’ll reserve a copy with autographs and all the trimmings. Beyond its many attractions, this country has an exceptional birdlife with a good number of endemic species. I think out of all the countries I’ve been lucky enough to glimpse, Ethiopia is where birds are the easiest to observe. Given the unusual—and sometimes unbearable—human presence, they’re not too skittish, even for a group of ornithologists eager for unique shots. Plus, the locals only take chickens from the avian fauna, and sometimes a few guinea fowl!
I think the lockdown is ending too soon for you to complete your work—maybe there’ll be a second one (our "protectors" are already talking about it)?
After heavy rains, the sun has returned, so I’m going to hop on my bike and rediscover the roads of our beautiful Cévennes.
Best regards, Jacky.
PS: Rereading your message, I realize the chief photographer of the team is your partner, so I’ll tone down the very beginning of my first sentence to share the credit with what follows.
