Tegwaan birds

Thanks to the abundance of water and the diversity of ecosystems, birdlife is prolific at Tegwaan.

While we’re not avid birdwatchers ourselves, we can’t help but notice how many different species enjoy living here! :-)
We have counted more than 70 different species so far, and we’re trying to catalogue them here.

Please also see this page: https://www.wwbirds.co.za/dir/waterval-boven-birding/

All pictures below have been taken strictly on Tegwaan property. Please let us know if you have better shots that you’d be happy to share on this page!…
