We were fortunate enough to find some time to join Mark in Nature's Valley for a morning of fynbos ringing before Shane left. It was an early start to the day, leaving home at 5am and setting up nets in a rather chilly, cloudy dawn. Our ringing table moved under shelter as it rained on and off for most of the morning. Despite the miserable weather we caught a total of 27 birds, and I was able to add 2 new species to my list: Swee Waxbill and Southern Double-collared Sunbird.
