Using your BY to revisit SA bird IDs in the hope we may get back next year after all. Very envious of the Ground Hornbill sighting!!

Thank you very much @Dave Williams. It's always exciting to see them, although this particular sighting was very brief.

 

Hopefully you can make it back here next year.

good to see fresh shots of African birds (mine's like over a year old)!

 

That oriole was sparkling in the shot!
