Birding the Drakensberg, South Africa

10,000 Birds

One in November 2018 included a one-day birding trip in the Drakensberg area, a mountain range in the border area between South Africa and Lesotho. The Common Waxbill looks like it belongs in a pet shop rather than in the wild. Given the strict covid prevention measures here in China, I have not left the country in almost 2 years now.
