Cape Town Pelagics, Birding
Africa and Cape
Birding Route are all maintained by three South African
birders. These birders include two ornithology research
students, Callan Cohen and Claire
Spottiswoode, and an experienced ornithologist, Prof.
Peter Ryan. In addition, Ross Wanless has been managing Cape Town Pelagics since 2005. Ross is a Phd student at the University of Cape Town, studying seabird conservation on Gough Island, with Peter Ryan as one of his advisors.
We run Birding Africa which is a consulting and specialist
guiding company. We are endeavouring to encourage eco tourism
and international birding interest in Africa, and more specifically
our home region around Cape Town.
Birding and ornithology are both hobbies
and a career to us, and we hope that these pages will impart
to both locals and prospective visitors some of our enthusiasm
for this extraordinarily bio diverse region and its landscapes,
fauna and flora. Below is a summary of
our activities and if you wish for more details please see
our Tour
Leaders page found on the Birding Africa website.
