Thanks, Diedert.

I have more images of some "specialities" from the Cape Verdes, which I'll upload in a few days. 

Best regards.

Thanks for the picture!

As we follow the Dutch Birding list & taxonomy here, can you change the name into Bourne's Heron / Kaapverdische Purperreiger (Ardea bournei)? Since the publication of BOU Checklist 13 on Cape Verde Islands by Hazevoet in 1995, this taxon is treated as a species.

Hi.

Thanks for your proposal, Arnoud, but I don't know how I can change the name in the photo in question. I agree with this change. 

Best regards.
