Mother Mountain Duck and her babies - father was trying to make use follow him away from the water.

This Western Swamphen had its head in the leaves.

We saw many tortoises today - one was on a log sunning itself, another was swimming just under the water (which was so clear we could see to the bottom) and there were seven on the tree leaning into the water. We made too much noise for the seven and five dropped into the water. Can you see the two that were left? We also saw a white faced Heron and an Ibis fly over us but they landed too far from us to take photos.
