.. Three Big Birds
The Southern Banded Snake Eagle’s loud calls kak kak kak-kak-kak-kao, and the Black Sparrowhawk’s persistent rapid chip chip-chip, attracted my attention. The two Palm-nut Vultures were silent.

A male Southern Mocker Swallowtail fluttered in but wouldn’t sit still.
A Citrus Swallowtail too
On another day, an Olive Sunbird kicked up a huge fuss and I searched, hoping to spot a snake or an owl or whatever was causing such rude language. Nothing. The Sunbird then went quiet and hopped onto this strelitzia flower for a drink.

Sjoe. More birdies than back in your Palmiet back yard? Swaer Dave has just sent W. a pic he took of a Purple Banded sunbird presumably in Zini.
Not yet, but I’d bet before 16yrs have gone by Zini will surpass the Palmiet.
