RAPTORS OF SOUTHERN AFRICA - AN ID COURSE
Friday 16 April (evening) and Saturday 17 April (full day)
Ulrich Oberprieler, known for his superb courses on nature and related topics, will present an ID course, based on his recently published “Raptor Guide of Southern Africa”. The course will provide an overview of Southern Africa’s raptors and will teach a systematic, step-by-step approach to raptor identification and appreciation. It will be based on the fact that the key to raptor identification is a thorough knowledge of South Africa’s 11 raptor groups. These groups will be discussed in detail, with special emphasis on a number of representative species within each group. A mixture of regional species occurring in the Western Cape and raptors that occur elsewhere in Southern Africa will be described, with emphasis on those that are less readily identified. In addition to the broad overview of species, Ulrich will cover roughly one third of Southern Africa’s 83 raptors in more detail.
Venue: Nassau Centre, Groote Schuur High School, Palmyra Road, Newlands.
