This Black Heart really co-operated by turning around.
Darkcapped Bulbul.
We saw a number of sunbirds but this is my "best" shot of a White-bellied Sunbird.
A healthy looking Stralitzea.
A Cormorant sunning himself.
Hadeda.
More to follow.

The Guinea Fowl stream taken from the bridge.
Its nest making time for the Masked Weaver.
White Eye in a Coral Tree.
Resting time for the nest maker.
Three of the E.G. goslings in a huddle.
And finally - another huddle of E.G.'s. I never knew that they had a flash of green under the wing.
That's all folks.

We went for a walk in the gardens on Saturday afternoon.
Funnily enough not many birds but I did manage to take this photo:
Giant African Snails mating.
