99 Bottles of beer on the wall

The countdown to the 100th bird begins:
The advantages of the Superzoom is starting to paying off. But the birds are not making my life easier by slowing down.

This is why wildlife photography is a pain in the aching body part of the day. All I could see with my see was a dot on a pole.
Osprey

97
Another bird that was found by a combination of luck and hard work. I had just found a new bird sighting location and was walking to another one. In the middle of nowhere on a tree without leaves.
Asian Openbill

Notice the beak is not able to close properly. Hence their name.


Update on the 12th of Jan

This is when things get messy. There was a raptor identified some time ago (Read more than a year) but it was not logged in any list.
Grey Fish Eagle
99
Another bird that was spotted earlier but was awaiting identification.
Ashy Minivet


If you think this is bad, you might not want to know about the 100th bird which has been captured on film but it is still being identified for confirmation that it is a different species.


100!!!!
Ok, the ending was a little better than I expected. The 100th bird was one of those marshes, swamp, shore critter that I never got round to identifying
Marsh Sandpiper

Which means that the exercise was completed in late 2019. And a new beginning for 2020.
