		In the Senegal River delta, the Djoudj Sanctuary is a wetland of 16,000 hectares, comprised of a large lake surrounded by streams, ponds and backwaters.
		This is surprising given the unique location of the capital, Dakar, on a low-lying peninsula, the tip of which projects 50 km out to sea from the main north-south line of the coast, offering exceptional opportunities for observations, especially in autumn.

		A Senegal Coucal was found in a nearby bush and a 'ticking' Red-winged Warbler had everyone peering into the tall grass for a look.
		The ridges between pools held Senegal Thick-knees and Black Kites and we were treated to three Blue-cheeked Bee-eaters flying over passing food to each other.As we drove out of the Pirang area a sudden stop was called for as a Dark-chanting Goshawk flew overhead.
		Now we headed down towards the border with Senegal, to a disputed area, although the road signs, and the fact that we went through a border post indicated we were indeed in Senegal.

	BirdForum - Do you know what this is
		The White-browed Coucal (which is sometimes considered to include Burchell's; together they are also called Burchell's) comes "somewhat close", but the nearest record still is some 1000 km.
		The faint barring on the wing indicate that it is in the transition from immature to adult.
		It should be mentioned that Blue-headed Coucal is largely restricted to areas near water, and if your garden is far from any densely vegetated swampy area/river, it must be considered unlikely to occur; which then would lead you to Senegal.

		About 30 to 90 cm (12 to 36 inches) long, coucals are loose-plumaged birds with rather stout, down-curved bills, short wings, and long, graduated tails.
		The cuckoos cover a great range in size, from the small glossy or emerald cuckoos of the genus Chrysococcyx, which are about 15 centimetres (six inches) long, to the large ground cuckoos (Carpococcyx) and the larger species of coucals (Centropus), which reach nearly 90 centimetres (three feet), including the tail, which is often strikingly long.
		The greater, or North American, roadrunner (Geococcyx californianus) is reported to take flying grasshoppers by leaping after them from the ground.
