The Kingfisher lodge is making a name for itself again: we can see all the kingfishers here, if we stay for a year. The canoe trip at the shallow river (in March) was hard work for Omar. They have a number of 4-person canoes (1/2/1), with a bit of wind in their backs that is easy, but with a headwind (although not much) three hours of non-stop canoeing is hard work. Fortunately, there were many beautiful birds to see. The Marsh Sandpiper and the Greater Painted-Snipe were new, but the photos of the Malachite Kingfisher were special. In the afternoon we walked a bit upstream at the river, where many water birds were. Here too a Malachite Kingfisher cooperated, which had never happened in South Africa.
