Once a week we go out to this spot on the Black River in the morning and spend 5 minutes noting every species we can see and their numbers. Yesterday was a two kingfisher day with a trio of Pied Kingfishers fussing just on the right edge of the Liesbeek mouth and a Malachite Kingfisher I didn&rsquo;t see (I was taking notes and, when I thought I saw it later, was asked if I wasn&rsquo;t looking at a Morning Glory flower - I was 😂). Despite being an urban river system, it&rsquo;s bursting with wildlife.</p>
