Walk in the Greenbelt in search of Gymnogene

 Heather and Russell saw Gymnogene the day before so I went to have a look with Heather. No sign of them, but the light was lovely so I took some photos. Russell and Carmen joined me later. As we neared the car, a gymnogene flew high above us, too far for a photo but exciting nevertheless.

An early morning get up so Russell could do the 5 km Park Run in the Harold Botanical Gardens. I walked up onto the slopes and did some bird photography. Then Carmen and her wonderful Aunt joined us for breakfast and a walk to Disa Kloof. In the afternoon, we went to see the penguins and had a glorious swim in the Palmiet River.  All in all, an absolutely super day.
