Tailor-made safaris and travel to Southern Africa

The majestic African Fish Eagle

SOUTHERN AFRICAN BIRDS AND BIRDING

The lascivious African Jacana A Ground Hornbill searches for grubs


Southern Africa is rapidly developing a reputation as one of the world's premier birding destinations.






With over 900 species of bird, the region offers a greater variety than America and Canada combined, in an area roughly 1/3 the size of the USA. For specialist birders, the region boasts excellent guides, well-developed infra-structure, and a wealth of literature on its many feathered species. Even the first-time safari traveler will be struck by the majesty of birds like the African Fish Eagle (top) and the beauty of the Lilac-Breasted Roller (bottom), and will revel in tales of the African Jacana's (above left) sexual habits, and the maternal commitment of the Ground Hornbill (above right).
