Karoo Prinia

Karoo Means Desert

One of the first Lifers seen there was a Karoo Prinia.  Many South African species’ names included the word Karoo, which means desert, although most of the time we saw them when we were not in a desert region.  The Karoo Prinia was an active bird and often perched out in the open so getting a shot of them was easy.
