The Lowveld in South Africa is an incredible region of biodiversity. With over 700 different bird and mammal species, the Lowveld boasts many popular species such as the Big Five and other stunning birds like the Crowned Eagle, Knysna Turaco, African Emerald Cuckoo, and African Finfoot. Tourists can marvel at the Malachite Sunbirds and Gurney's Sugarbirds feeding on the flowering aloes of Kaapsehoop, explore the Botanical Gardens and see the breeding endemic Bald Ibis, or check out Punda Maria rest camp and Pafuri region for unique sightings of Pel's Fishing Owl, Thick-billed Cuckoo, Racket-tailed Roller, and Arnot's Chat. Birders will never get bored with Kruger National Park, having its own fair share of great sights such as the Southern Bald Ibis, Cape Rock Thrush, Brown Snake Eagle, Long-crested Eagle, Trumpeter Hornbill, Wing-snapping Cisticola, and Olive Bushshrike. For wildlife lovers seeking a real African experience, the Lowveld region offers truly memorable birding opportunities.
