Remarks:

From top of building in green western outskirts of Niamey. The two birds arrived quite high in the sky, together from the NW far away. My impression was that they where actually just arriving from their migration. They glided down, came closer (100-150m), flying in circles for a while, then slowly flew down away somewhere to the north of Niamey and dissappeared. The whole observation took a few minutes. Big, red bill and leggs, black rump, also different jizz from Abdim's Stork.
