Some flora and fauna to round off my visit to West Africa. The first five pictures were taken at the crocodile pool.
- Vegetation outside the museum
- An interesting stem/trunk
- The base of the trunk of a silk cotton or kapok tree
- Close up of the kapok tree
- Bamboo
- On the way back to Banjul, don't know what this tree is but it had wonderful coloured leaves
- Close up of coloured leaves
- Very large spider in enormous web, at the crocodile pool. The web was several feet wide and covered several bushes
- On the way back north up the West African coast the ship was followed by lots of birds. I tried to snap them but they kept moving! This is my best shot, looks a bit like a gannet
- Some of the birds were very dark in colour, with sharper wings, this is the only photo I have which shows one fairly well
