Sun 12 Sept: 09h00 Roosfontein Nature Reserve
Bird expert Roy Cowgill will guide us through this little known Westville nature reserve to see its plants and birds. It is primarily a grassland reserve with coastal forest in the river valleys. A variety of grassland birds are resident, such as Grassbird, several cisticolas, Redthroated Wryneck and many seed-eaters, including waxbills, canaries and widows. Those who are keen can picnic afterwards at Mamba Rock which has spectacular views.
