BIRD WATCHING

Early and late daylight are usually the best times to observe some of the hundreds of species of birds that populate our region. The ostrich is the largest bird you will see. Followed by the kori bustard (the largest flying bird in Africa), mournful-looking marabous, long-legged secretary birds, buzzards and eagles, vultures, guinea fowls, francolins, hornbills, ibises, egrets, storks, stilts, avocets, geese and ducks, spoonbills, sunbirds, weaverbirds and the magnificently colored love birds.
