THURSDAY 21 JULY     PUNGALINA

This was not a day off for us, but we went out to the wetlands for a while, in the afternoon, to do the monthly bird survey there, while we still had the time. I kind of consider this to be within the scope of our work, rather than leisure. Who knows what we might find, that would bring bird watchers flocking?

The lake had shrunk quite noticeably – what was a wide area of mud was now dry, powdery dust.

    It’s fascinating to learn about the changes in wetlands and how they impact birdlife.
