Re: Weekend Target Bird (2)I am off on Thursday for 3 nights at Bonamanzi near Lake St. Lucia and then 2 nights at Giant's Castle. A member of our church heads up a birding tour company and needed help to drive a family from the US to Bonamanzi, then to the Drakensberg and then back to the airport for him. What an amazing opportunity this will be - especially the birding around Bonamanzi where I have a chance to pick up some of these potential lifers (surely breaking me through into the 600 "club"): Mark Tittley (a bird-a-holic) Johannesburg, South Africa Bird Photos: http://bitly.com/MarksBirds Trip Reports: http://bitly.com/BirdingSA #1523 06-08-2012 20:27:52

Re: Weekend Target Bird (2)Thanks Trevor. I believe the route we are taking via Middleburg and then on the N2 via Pongola to Bonamanzi should be fine. Thankfully we only head to Giant's Castle on Sunday - hopefully the snow has melted by then and all the birds are out enjoying the fair weather.
