Program

Informal meeting around the braai in Mbuluzi on the Friday night (not compulsory).

Breakfast at Simunye Country Club on Sunday am and prize giving (not compulsory)

We hope to showcase the amazing variety that eSwatini has to offer when it comes to habitats and birdlife. From Blue Swallows in the Grassland to Narina Trogons in the Forest to Pink Throated Twinspots in the Lowveld and many in between.

Mbuluzi Game Reserve is situated in the North-Eastern corner of eSwatini about 5 hours from Johannesburg. Mbuluzi has various accommodation options from camping to lodges and they have agreed to host event. Most parts of Swaziland are within a 2-hour drive from Mbuluzi and so one can plan various routes to brilliant birding spots from here.
