The addicts spent a day visiting two fantastic game parks in the Port Alfred area for some pre race filming with the Wild Racers TV Crew. Gambet, the friendly Giraffe, Rhino's, Elephants and plenty of other wild life made for a stunning day out.

Sibuya Game Reserve
The most noteworthy sighting during early December was by our newly arrived guide, Chris Ovens. While out with his guests, he spotted a raptor without a tail and wondered how this had happened. Luckily he had his camera handy and took a photograph because he was not sure of what he was seeing, only having arrived from up north a day or two before, he was not familiar with our local birds. Checking facts later, he was amazed to note that the bird was a BATELEUR (Terathopius ecaudatus) and indeed a juvenile but way beyond its “normal” range!

Luxury Accommodation
Not all South African game reserves have all the desirable qualities that make up the perfect safari: a riverine jungle full of birds and monkeys, grazing land, expansive views and the Big Five, but Sibuya Game Reserve in the Eastern Cape has it all. And it's the only SA reserve where guests are transported to their luxury tented camp by boat.

Bateleur Eagles
Birding
Causing a great stir at Sibuya at the moment are a "pair" of immature Bateleur Eagles (Terathopius ecaudatus).The Eastern Cape used to be part of their range but they disappeared years ago, so the Rarities Committee are also extremely excited by their appearance here on the 4th December 2011!

Crowned Eagle
A wonderful sighting recently was had by guests who came across a Bushbuck carcass on which a Crowned Eagle was feeding. An uncommon photographic opportunity for all.

Sibuya Game Reserve
Herons are common at SIBUYA & may therefore be overlooked but they are a wonderful sight as they stalk regally across the landscape or pose for long minutes with their snake-like neck poised at the ready for the kill. Perfect, graceful specimens for the avid photographer!
