Still quite wet underfoot I scanned the reserve and was greeted with a few white-breasted cormorants, reed cormorants, Cape spur fowls and quite a few grey herons.
Overhead was a fly past of one of the black headed herons, yellow-billed ducks, a pied king fisher and an abundance of small birds (Cape sparrows / Sothern mask weavers, Southern red bishops and Levaillant's cisticolas).
Birds of the morning:
- Grey Heron in flight (first two images)
- Southern red bishop female
- Levaillant's cisticolas
