It seems that the earlier gate opening times this week at Intaka Island have certainly been utilized well by local twitchers. Brian Vanderwalt reports that the BAILLON'S CRAKE showed again this morning just before 07h00 to some 38 birders that were squeezed into the hide to obtain a view of this little beauty. I’m prepared to put money on the fact that that is the largest number of birders that have ever been present in that hide at one time…:)

Good luck if you are planning on still chasing this bird and keep us updated.

Kind regards
Trevor
