Re: Rietvlei Nature Reserve through Greenies' Eyes
We saw the Lanner and black chested snake eagle on the drive to the hide which is in th the picnic area. At the hide the red bishops and masked weavers were busy. We had breakfast in the hide
Walking back from the hide to the car, we could hear ther red chested cuckoo and searched around but could not find it
back to driving, we found a Black Shouldered Kite

The black-shouldered kite is a beauty. I saw my first one at Rietvlei

Love the red bishop with the nesting material in his beak.
God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.
