The Hadada Ibis



OK, this bit of the view from my office window isn’t great, but those very common large birds are much nicer-looking close-up. I can’t say the same about their sound, however. Their name is like the sound: hah-dah-dah but imagine it like a very loud seagull echoing around the courtyard. That sound can interrupt lectures and sleep alike. Not that anyone has fallen asleep in my lectures yet, I haven’t given one.
