Botel Cottage in Cape Coast - Crocodiles

Photographers Comment: We called in to take a look at what was here as we were passing, but it was not at the right time of day. Evening is the best time to see crocodiles and possibly turtles, while early morning is said to be the best time to see the weaver birds up close.

There are a number of walkways linking restaurant and other areas together allowing a lot of viewpoints, plus just beyond the restaurant you can go onto a mud bank right up to the weaver birds nests, and its said that crocodiles also come out onto this mud bank. The birds I photographed were at the other side of the lake, slightly too far to get well on a 400mm. The images of birds shown are sections of the images.  Ideally I need a longer lens here probably 1000mm and a tripod, to get birds at the other side, neither I had with me on this trip.
