Hello All.:)

We are just back from the KTP. We spent a wonderful 22 days there. Even though I thought it was a bit impossible I have managed to add another two birds to my Kgalagadi List . The first one was a Southern Red Bishop seen at the unelectrified campsite at Twee Rivieren on the 03/01/2023. :)

My second "Kgalagadi Lifer " tick is that of a Rosy-faced Lovebird...actually Lovebirds :) Seen just passed the turn off to Kalahari tented Camp on the 07/01/2023. Not a good photo at all but enough to ID them. :)
