Weekend at Cape Agulhas 2

Today is windy and stormy in Cape Town, so thought I would re-visit the southern tip of Africa today after our lovely relaxing weekend there. This magical, remote and wild place is only 3 hours drive from Cape Town and easily accessible. Here are some of the ocean birds we saw - a Grey Heron, some Cape Cormorants and White-breasted Cormorants, an African Black Oystercatcher (below the heron on the left of the photo) and lower down and to the right, some Curlew Sandpipers, probably newly arrived from Siberia.

  1. I breezed through Cape Agulhas briefly once just to see the point. I didn't even have a digital camera yet.
