On a recent trip we organised a personalised tour through Birding Africa. www.birdingafrica.com Our guide was Dom Rollinson.

We did a trip up to the Tanqua Karoo as well as east to the town of . . . → Read More: RFI South Africa

I’ve been three times to Kruger and found it marvellous for birding. It would be best to spend at least a week. I’ve always spent more than that, and we’ve driven ourselves from rest camp to rest camp from the extreme south to the extreme north (varied habitats, very varied birdlife: the further . . . → Read More: South Africa
By Birding-Aus, on January 15th, 2018 Hi Everyone,
My wife and I are travelling to South Africa at the end of June this year for the first time.
I’d appreciate any advice on birding hotspots, guides and accommodation for east and southern parts of South Africa.
In particular, within Kruger NP, Pretoria and the Garden Coast from Capetown and Port Elizabeth.

These are the details of Ivor’s lost scope. I lost my scope on Morris Ck Road, Giru. It was a VORTEX Razor HD 11-33×50 on an aluminium tripod. Forgot to put it back in the car and when I returned it was gone. I tell you this in case someone contacts you about . . . → Read More: Lost a Scope
By Birding-Aus, on January 15th, 2018 Hello A Townsville birder, Ivor Preston, accidentally left his Scope on Morris Rd, Giru, Nth Qld recently and when he went back for it the same day it was gone.

By Alan Gillanders, on January 15th, 2018 Greetings, This morning one could have driven to the terns but the tide was a bit high for me. I walked.

By Birding-Aus, on January 15th, 2018 Around the time (probably 0820hr) and on the same day (Thursday, 11th January), that Cathy was seeing her needletails in Ryde, I was driving through the Sydney suburb of Canada Bay with around 40 needletails swirling around on either side of the road and overhead.
Always good to see them!
