More Birding

Tuesday we went out on an early morning birding tour with one of the local guides. It was very good. Just us 2 and the guide. She took us around a park naming all the different bird calls and birds we saw. I’ve been come a real nerd with all these birds ticking off the ones in my bird book that we have seen. Barry, one of the guys back at camp, and I have a bit of a competion on who will check the most birds off before we leave for placement. I was already kicking his butt and after this week I will have 163 birds.

The afternoon we went back to the nature park and drove up to the cape where Suzie put her feet in the Indian ocean for the first time! It was a cloudy day and not to warm so I kept my shoes and sock n and stupidly stood too close to the waters edge so I also ended up with wet feet.

Wednesday we are off to Bonamanzi. The head ranger is putting us up for the night and we are going to be treated as guests. Can’t wait.
