We talked for a while and he turned out to be Jotham Maduna, one of the local bird guides which we were thinking of hiring, but did not because we were not sure if and when we would get there. As he offered to walk with us we gladly accepted . In the end we were very happy having him around as I think else we would have seen nothing and on top we probably would have gotten lost.
we found a blue duiker that was too close for the lens
narina trogon
and beautiful flowers
