A Bustard no less

 

I still call this one a Stanley bustard, but they tell me it has changed its name.

I wonder if it knows, that it’s is now called a Denham’s Bustard.

It is a really large bird, that struts confidently in the veld. I haven’t often been able to get as close as I did this day.

    A bustard by any other name is still an interesting bird. A couple of species live in Europe. I’ve never seen one.
