Morning Coffee

Andy and I had planned to go to the site this morning but on waking at 6am, found it was raining. This carried on well past 8am and everything was soaked from the all night rain. We've put off the visit for this morning - not like there's nothing else to do.

Having coffee and checking out the latest bird arrivals in the garden turned out quite productive once again. I've been hearing a bird call on a very regular basis that sounded very familiar nad similar to what I've heard at Kembu in Nakuru, Kenya - well, a Grey-capped Warbler showed itself! (saw it the first time at Kembu) Very happy with this as it added another bird to my Rwanda list and according to Andy he hangs around quite a lot in the hedge in the back garden - very typical of them to be in the hedges.

Then, another little black and white bird appears near the warbler and its one that has been mystifying me for a long time. Problem is I never to get to take some footage and/or pics of it and sit down and try and identify it as it just appears for a few minutes and is off again - over and above the fact that I've only seen it about 3 times.

Well, anyway got into the working thing and Andy started on sorting out the stack of job applications. We got nearly 10 just in the 3 weeks I was gone. Reading them just brings home the amount of trained people there are in this town, ranging from the construction industry to food & beverage & hotel industry. Many of them did their university diplomas, certificates etc at the Ugandan universities.
