Drama. These guys all normally get along pretty well, but here a squirrel decided to start something and nearly got kicked in the head as reward. Moments later they were back to munching sunflower seeds side-by-side again.

We found this planktonic creature floating. It ate a piece of a squid mantle when put in the same bucket with our bait. What is it!!!! We are thinking a type of mollusc as the mouth seemed and moved like an elongated radula, and there are spots resembling photoreceptors.

Very lucky to see this amazing larvae/juvenile fish in what was a very short snorkel.
It was right near shore and I thought it was algae until I noticed it change direction.
At first I thought something like a john dory, or maybe leatherjacket but I'm not so sure.

~1.5cm long

I saw this bird walking in front of my car and my window was cracked so I thought I'd be silly and say "Hello" but I was not expecting the bird to actually respond in any manner. Made for a good photo though!

Barn swallow roost site in Boje, Cross River state, Nigeria.

Boje is an IBA that witnesses an aggregation of barn swallows from around the world, from November to April/May.

The swallows, in their thousands, roost in elephant grass fields on the surrounding hill tops.

Ornithologists visit annually to perform ringing, which enables research to further understand the swallow migration.
