Nostalgia post!
These used to be so common in KZN when I was growing up, haven't seen one now for years.
Saw one last Friday driving from Bloemfontein to Kimberly. Rare sighting these days.

We lived in Ladysmith in the early 1960's and frequently went to the Berg. Seeing these birds was always a big happening.
I see that the nictitating membrane is over the eye. Snapped at the right moment
By far my favourite bird. Why have they become so scarce ?
I saw a pair of these in Strand WC. Was very surprising!
Brilliant sighting.
