Bird Watching Cape Town. Western Cape as a destination. It depends where you go.
Shore birds plus specials join The Fynbos Guy for Cape Towns Best Bird Watching. Adjacent to Dyer Island is Geyser Rock home to a 60000 strong Cape fur seal colony. With more than 610 bird species recorded in Cape Town and 60 of Southern Africas 86 endemic birds found in the Western Cape it is well worth grabbing your bird-book and binoculars and go on a mission around the Mother City in search of some significant sights.
Bird watchers may initially feel dismayed at the birdlife in Cape Town.

The Southern African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds SANCCOB is a non-profit sea bird rehabilitation centre based in Cape Town. I was recently in Cape Town for a Sola 5 Conference and took time to do a little bird watching both at the home of my hosts Winton and Barbara Gibbs and at the water front.
