Today we moved to Umlalazi Nature Reserve, situated on the North Coast of Kwazulu Natal Province, for the next part of our Easter holidays. Umlalazi is well known as the home of the Palm-Nut Vulture, one of the rarest birds in South Africa, and we had a brilliant sighting of one of them along the lagoon just minutes after arriving!
