Media notes
A single bird in a group of Greater Flamingo's. This species is much scarcer in Western Africa than in the rest of its African range. Apparently there's a group of just over a 100 birds present in nearby mangroves from Pirang. According to a local guide, it's just seen a couple times a year. Some consolidation for the missed Grey-crowned Cranes, who practically left the place after a bunch of people captured their young to sell them as pets the previous breeding season. Elevation: 12 m. Date added to IBC: June 22, 2016.
