White Bird

The first of December these birds started showing up everywhere.  They are still here and I am told that they will migrate elsewhere soon.  When I asked the locals what kind of bird they were or their name I got another "you are kidding" look.  They told they were called "white bird." They look like small cranes.  Some of the locals call them "cow birds"  because they always seem to be around the cows.

When they arrived it made me realize that there are NO SEAGULLS!  Liberia has a huge coastline and not a single seagull.  What a blessing!!!!!
