LESSER YELLOWLEGS – this at least answers the question as to whether the Mkombo bird might be the same individual as the Geelbek bird. After a long period of no reports, the bird is showing again this morning at Geelbek hide in the West Coast National Park – reported by Regard van Dyk.

Kind regards
