Wildlife seen along the way (up-dated as we go)


One of the things I love about travel is seeing some of the wonderful creatures that live in other countries. It has also been interesting seeing the fauna and flora slowly change as we cycle from one habitat or range to another. Sometimes on long tiring stretches it is the sight of a colourful or charismatic bird that keeps my spirits up and keeps me going. I am keeping a list of noteable birds and other wildlife seen on our travels (at least those i know the names of!). The list is ordered by country so that its chronological but i'm only listing each species once.
Watching wildlife from a bicycle has some advantages, in that we are often outdoors 24 hours a day and up at dawn when wildlife is most active. On the other hand there is nothing more frustrating than pulling to an abrubt halt, losing all your hard earned momentum only to see the arse of the creature you stopped to look at disappear into a thick forest never to be seen again, you then have to build up your speed again and catch up with Tracey who is by now a mile ahead of you and wondering where the hell you are!
