Welcome to the launch of BirdLife Northern Gauteng's new website! As you can see, the site is better, bigger and filled with new features and functions. The biggest new feature is certainly the new Online Shop we are launching. Select the Shop item from the main menu and have a look at all the goodies we have for sale. You will have to register on the shop site if you want to place any orders. You will also be able to pay for your orders online by using Electronic Fund Transfers from your own online banking site. You will not have to enter any credit card details or other banking details on our site, so it very safe! When you are done in the online shop, just click on Back to BLNG to return to this site. Please look around and see what else is included here. If you find any broken links, please send me an email and I will correct them as soon as possible. For any suggestions, comments or reports of broken links, click here. Jacques van Zyl |

An invitation to contribute Roberts Online presents a unique opportunity to access online the full texts of Roberts Birds of Southern Africa 7th Edition. The texts will be lavishly illustrated with thousands of photographs, and photographers are invited to take this opportunity to share their digital bird images and so contribute to ornithology in Southern Africa. We also invite bird sound recordists to submit their recordings of geographical variation and repertoire of bird sounds. Please visit www.robertsonline.co.za for further details and to see our example pages. Access to Roberts Online will be by subscription, while purchasers of Roberts 7 Multimedia PC or PDA edition will automatically receive one year free subscription. For more details read the full article here. |

If you ever want to visit a place that exceeds every overstatement – then visit Namibia! Late May we decided to go and by mid June we were “oppad”-Friends in Windhoek said the Pretoria to Windhoek trip was “sommer niks”, “jy ry teen 120k, en as jy weer sien is jy daar” Fortunately we left at 4am and a mere 1460 kms later we were at Windhoek-that taught me my first lesson of the Namibian total disregard for Long Distance Travel. |

The second trip I undertook with our club was to Vogelfontein near Naboomspruit. Part or the Nyl flood plain, this area was and still is a mecca for birders. The Nyl river (so named as it was once believed to be the source of the great Nile river) rises in the foothills of the Waterberg between Nylstroom and Warmbaths and on reaching flat ground near Nylsvley Nature Reserve, spreads and covers a large area when there have been good rains in the catchment area. |

We have introduced a new security feature on the BLNG website to enhance the protection that was already in place. You may have noticed an option on the registration page, or on the contact pages where you can send email to the club of committee members, that asks for a security code. |
