Explore the Karoo and find its many endemics at these three top spots
Sometimes, the best adventures
start with a twist of fate. For 11-year old
Richard Meyer, a fall from a bunk
bed was the unexpected beginning
of a lifelong passion for birds and nature, from his first look
out of the window with a bird guide in hand to exploring
some of the best birding spots in South Africa. We interview
Richard and his mother, Carien.
