Day 3 - Ive succumbed to stalking birds?!

Today was quite an uneventful transect. We did however see a number of new birds such as the Golden-breasted Bunting, a nesting Brubru and a Red-headed Weaver. The mopane transect is by far the hardest of the transects as it is the thickest vegetation in the area and includes some serious offroad driving. We also had to contend with quite a hefty wind which of course does not help with the spotting of small birds. However, it was still great to be out in the bush and we thoroughly enjoyed stalking birds through the thick mopane.
