Wakkerstroom - BirdLife Campsite 2023
Переглядів 439Рік тому
Welcome to my very first UA-cam video! Join me on a short tour of the BirdLife camping accomodation, and some photographs of a few species found in the area. When planning my trip, there was not much content on the campsite so decided to create a short video for future prospective travellers! #birding #wakkerstroom #exploresouthafrica Music Credits: Motivational Upbeat - AShamaluevMusic ua-cam....

      Unfortunately we went in January, so the forest walk was flooded. However, I’ve been lucky to see the Pels a few times along the Olifants River! 😇

    Hi Brendan what is the security like at the camp site. Is it completely fenced or is it an issue.

    • @b.davis.wildlife
      @b.davis.wildlife Рік тому

      Hi Alan, the camp is completely fenced - apart from the entrance which is protected by an electrified cattle grid. It definitely felt safe, as long as one keeps in mind that in Big 5 areas a higher level of alertness is always required!
