Report

Eventful morning at thr Sans Souci Bridge Patch.

At the patch at 9h03 on top of Quercus Suber a Double-collard Sunbird. No photograph; bird too quick.

Also at the patch a few Cape White-eyes; also seen at the River Trunck. Two photographs

At the patch a few Swee  Waxbills and many Bronze Mannikins. Two photographs

Twenty meters downstream from the Patch on a branch about two meters above the water, an Afrcan Harrier Hawk (adult). No photo, Hawk surprised camera by being so low. Camera should have known better.

Reed Cormorant diving and grooming 30 and 50 meters downstream from The Patch
