A slightly delayed report, but Josh Engel has let me know that his group located and photographed a PECTORAL SANDPIPER at Nsemani Dam, west of Satara in the Kruger National Park, on Saturday morning.
I’m not too sure how many records for the park there are of this species, but I will include a photo of the bird in Thursday’s report.
Good luck if you are planning on chasing it in the interim and keep us updated.
Kind regards
Trevor
