Report

At the Sans Souci Bridge Patch we had Egyptian Geese, Cape Bulbul, Olive Thrush and Reed Cormorant.

A little downstream we had Red-eyed doves, many Cape White-eyes and sme Bronze Mannikins but no Swee Waxbills; have not noticed any for a while now.

It seems as if the Olive Thrush survived a snare but still has something around its neck. It caught, carried and ate a worm; seemingly no discomfort.

And 'small mammals' to feed the hawks and Buzzards.

Hi Ma, where are you/ We siblings have reduced from seven to two since Sunday.
