Raptors are difficult. A typical birding course is a series of species

images and ID characters that can overload the senses and drain

the joy out of birding!
 

Our course emphasizes process against detail; principles versus

individual species.

​

We use our successful 2 step identification protocols, which

combined with comparative work, games and self identification

exercises  (repetitive to embed memory) turns a daunting task,

turns into an enjoyable session of learning.

Course Price

R375 for all 3 sessions for one person, R525 for 2 people or more.

For pensioners the cost is R275 for one person and R375

for 2 or more.
