Bird Photography Practical CTPS Woodbridge Island, Cape Town

Cape Town Photography Society (CTPS) Bird Photography Outing

Little Egret in Flight over the Diep River, Woodbridge Island

On Sunday morning, 19 November 2023, I went out with members of the Cape Town Photography Society (CTPS) to photograph some birds in flight / perched birds around the Diep River, Table Bay Nature Reserve, Woodbridge Island area(s).

I presented the Birds in Flight / Perched Bird Photography theory session to a substantial group of CTPS enthusiast bird photography members in Pinelands during March 2023. Since then we tried to find a suitable Saturday / Sunday morning for the practical session. Only now in November 2023 we anticipated that the weather would provide more favourable conditions in terms of some sun, less wind and improved light conditions. Unfortunately on our outing day it was not the most conducive birding day around here. It looked very much like June / July in Cape Town.

More than an anomaly for November weather conditions at Woodbridge Island

Not quite the birds / birds in flight weather conditions at Woodbridge Island we had in mind this particular November Sunday morning. Nevertheless, quite a few members arrived at 07:30 and we set-out to see what we could capture and learn around the Diep River, Table Bay Nature Reserve, Woodbridge Island. I also used the opportunity to test the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5 – 5.6L IS II USM lens paired with one of my Canon EOS 70D bodies. Normally in these conditions (and / or otherwise for birds in flight) I would use my Canon 7D Mark II paired with the EF 400mm f/5.6L USM lens.

Fortunately these conditions provide excellent learning opportunities from so many different perspectives. I'm glad we persuaded and in my opinion most of the photographers will have learned a great deal from the area, their gear and the conditions 

This morning became a learning experience for many members trying out their new camera gear and also became an opportunity in shooting in less ideal situations. We took a long hike into the Table Bay Nature Reserve and we encountered 10 – 15 species in-flight an perched birds.

One mistake I made was not to adjust the variable aperture lens to its full 400mm after I captured the above little egret just above the Diep River at 260mm. The consequence was that the rest of my shots were all captured at 260mm. The 40mm focal length would made a significant difference in many of my other shots. I generally only shoot around here with my prime 400mm lens and forgot to adjust the focal length back to 400mm.

I thoroughly enjoyed my morning with the CTPS-members and we will repeat this exercise in January 2024. I really want to expose the club members to the good early morning light quality we mostly do have here in summer and trust our next outing will provide just that.

A Sunday morning well-spent with a group of great people / Cape Town photographers.

Canon Equipment / setting I used:

• Canon EOS 70D APS-C Body
• Canon EF 100-400mm f/4-5.6L USM II lens
• Manual mode @ 360MM
• Aperture: f/5.6
• Auto-ISO: 320 – 800
• Shutter Speed: 1/2500s
• Lens AF on.Lens IS turn off
• Zone AF / 7fps / Handheld

A short hike from Woodbridge Island, opposite Milnerton High School, is the entrance to the Milnerton Lagoon section of the Table Bay Nature Reserve conservation Biodiversity Network. A relatively small wetlands area, but part of the much wider geographical nature conservation zone covering the Rietvlei Wetlands, Milnerton Lagoon, Milnerton Beach, Milnerton Racecourse, Zoarvlei Wetlands, Diep River and the Parklands Fynbos Corridor.

I frequently hike the Milnerton Lagoon / Diep River area in the hope of spotting some of the various bird species around the roadside of the Milnerton Lagoon, the Diep River and the tiny island (not Woodbridge Island) where I regularly photograph egyptian geese, grey herons, pied kingfishers and spoonbills.

I've spotted a lonesome malachite kingfisher flying past a few times, but I'm still unable to discover his perching whereabouts - or to get a good in flight capture. On a sunny morning there are many red-knobbed coots scooting down the river.

Pied Kingfisher : Table Bay Nature Reserve, Woodbridge Island, Cape Town

Smaller Birds

Various smaller birds like the weaver and waxbill chirp and hop impatiently through the reeds. Many of the larger birds also land and feed on the Milnerton golf course side of the Diep River. 

On any given day there will be at least one Pied kingfisher flying, diving and / or perched. Personally, my favorite small bird to watch and photograph.

During summer many sandwich and swift terns carry out their spectacular dives and turns out past the pump station into the main reserve area. 

Malachite kingfisher
Over the last couple months I've also captured the elusive malachite kingfisher perched / (and eventually in flight) in the reserve and on the wooden bridge.

Entrance to the Table Bay Nature Reserve (Milnerton Beach / Milnerton Lagoon / Diep River) is free and the images below are captured from about a 10 - 15 minutes walk from Milnerton Lagoon / Woodbridge Island through the Diep River entrance.

There are some amazing views of the Diep River, the prominent Milnerton Lighthouse on Woodbridge Island and our majestic Table Mountain. 

On the other side of the Diep River are the lushes greens of the Milnerton Golf Course - on a quite morning you will hear the regular 'ping' of golf balls being driven down the well-kept fairways.

Table Bay Nature Reserve Management
The Table Bay Nature Reserve is managed by the City of Cape Town and consists of seven parts: Rietvlei Wetlands, Milnerton Lagoon, Milnerton Beach, Milnerton Racecourse, Zoarvlei Wetlands, Diep River, and the Parklands Fynbos Corridor.

This approximately 880-hectare reserve comprises a variety of permanent and seasonal wetlands, and is surrounded by Cape Flats dune strandveld and Cape Flats sand fynbos vegetation.

The Rietvlei Wetland is in the floodplain of the Diep River between Milnerton and Table View. The river drains into Table Bay via the Milnerton Lagoon. The wetland offers a variety of habitats including a permanent freshwater lake, shallow marshes that flood in winter, reed beds, a river, and an estuarine lagoon with salt marshes that is open to the sea. A strip of coastal dunes links the reserve to Table Bay.

Bird watching facilities, including boardwalks and two bird hides, are provided in the Rietvlei Section. The “Old Friends Hide” looks out over the seasonal pans while the “Sunset Hide” looks out over the southern deep water lake. (Source: Cape Bird Club)

Entrance to the Table Bay Nature Reserve is on the Diep River side of the crossing of Broad Road and West Coast Road. My recommendation if you coming by car is to park on Woodbridge Island and walk over the main bridge, past the old wooden bridge and keep along the Diep River, past the pump station rondawel and enter to the left where you see the Table Bay Nature Reserve sign board (at the traffic lights).

Photography In The Fog

 How to Capture Images in Foggy Conditions

Tips for Photography In The Fog 

“In nature, everything has a job. The job of the fog is to beautify further the existing beauties!”

― Mehmet Mura

"Expecting nothing in front of me while bemoaning the fog - the cormorant appeared from absolutely nowhere. I changed my mind about (the) fog at that very moment." ―  Vernon Chalmers

Above Image Detail (Woodbridge Island, Cape Town)

• Canon EOS 7D Mark II / EF 400mm f/5.6L USM (Prime) lens 
• Manual Mode:  f/5.6 / 1/2500s / Auto-ISO 640 / Large-Zone AF / No IS (handheld)

Photographing Images in the Fog
Photographing in fog can create atmospheric and ethereal images, transforming familiar scenes into mysterious landscapes. Here are some tips to enhance your foggy photography:

1. Use a Tripod

• Fog can reduce the amount of available light, requiring longer exposure times. A sturdy tripod will help you capture sharp images without camera shake.

2. Wide Aperture

• Use a wide aperture (small f-number) to allow more light into your camera. This helps maintain faster shutter speeds, reducing the chance of motion blur.

3. Manual Focus:

• Autofocus can struggle in thick fog. Switch to manual focus and use live view on your camera to ensure precise focusing, especially if you have subjects at varying distances.

4. Capture Silhouettes

• Use the fog to create silhouettes of trees, buildings, or people. Position your subjects in front of a light source, and expose for the background to create striking contrasts.

5. Play with Composition

• Experiment with composition to create a sense of depth. Include foreground elements like trees or rocks to add layers to your image, enhancing the feeling of distance and mystery.

6. Shoot in RAW

• Foggy conditions can result in low contrast and muted colors. Shooting in RAW format gives you more flexibility during post-processing to adjust exposure, contrast, and color balance.

7. Look for Reflections

• If there are bodies of water in the area, look for reflections in the water. The fog can add an extra layer of interest to reflective surfaces.

8. Experiment with Monochrome

• Fog often reduces color saturation. Consider converting your images to black and white during post-processing to emphasize contrast and shapes.

9. Use a Lens Hood

• Moisture from the fog can settle on your lens. Using a lens hood can help protect your lens from droplets and maintain image clarity.

10. Adjust White Balance

• Fog can create a cool, blue cast in your photos. Experiment with your camera's white balance settings or adjust it in post-processing to achieve the desired color tone.

11. Capture Misty Landscapes

• Look for scenes with rolling hills or mountains partially obscured by fog. This can create a dreamy and otherworldly atmosphere.

12. Capture Early Morning or Late Evening

• Fog often occurs during the early morning or late evening when temperatures are cooler. These times can provide beautiful, soft light that complements the foggy conditions.

Remember, experimentation is key. Embrace the mysterious and moody nature of fog, and don't be afraid to try new techniques to capture its unique beauty. (Source: ChatGPT 2023)
