I got two NICE birds to add to my Kruger list: a Finfoot seen in the Sabie river and a brown-backed honeybird seen near Skukuza!

(Not great pix, but lekka for sharing...) :lol:

That takes my KNP total to 344

Believe it or not, about 5 or 6 kms north of Babalala picnic spot. (And I'm sure of the ID - although no pics to prove it

)

The Twinspot is very impressive . I presume the Wattle-eye was at Pafuri . Where did you see the Grey Headed parrots ?
