Robin and Sylvia Gibbs honoured me with their sixth stay (fifth Easter – and the biggest egg I’ve seen in a long time). They had a glorious sighting of a school of some 200 dusky dolphins on Monday morning. Avid walkers, they trailed through Groot Paternoster Private Nature Reserve, marvelling at the eight charming Table Mountain sandstone houses there. Serious money that! Their daughter, Margaret, is married to one of South Africa’s top birders, Trevor Hardaker, and Sylvia and Robin have become quite adept at IDing new avifaunal species. I know this to be a fact because I heard Sylvia shouting, “I’ve just seen a Ruddy Turnstone!” By the way, for a whole new experience I urge you to visit http://www.zestforbirds.co.za/ as well as its many links.
