Nothing terribly adventurous today – just a walk along the beach in Camps Bay to the next bay at Clifton.
Masses of cormorants flying south and a few north – a mixture of Cape cormorants and a back bird with brown wings (probably a red-winged starling), a great black-backed gull, Egyptian geese which are obviously considered as pests locally, and a little egret.

Could this be a red winged-starling? – can’t wait to get my hands on a bird book

Also saw some Cape wagtails along the main road in Camps bay.

That is indeed a red-winged starling. You have posted some lovely photographs here.
