On April 10, club members and friends gathered in Potchefstroom for the fourth meeting of BirdLife Wesvaal.

“We were privileged to host Johan de Klerk and Johan Nel as our guest speakers for the evening. Their presentation, titled ‘Get to Know Your Camera,’ was both informative and engaging, breaking down the complexities of photography clearly and concisely,” said Pieter Labuschagne, chairperson for BirdLife Wesvaal.

“We truly appreciate their effort in sharing valuable insights and emphasising the importance of understanding camera settings and practicing photography skills. A heartfelt thank you to all members who attended, and a special word of thanks to Zybrand Lombard for organising the evening’s speakers.”

They also extend their sincere appreciation to the BirdLife Wesvaal management team for approving a R5 000 donation to the Mouse Free Marion Project, in support of BirdLife South Africa’s vital conservation initiatives.

“BirdLife Wesvaal is proud to contribute to these meaningful efforts in protecting our natural heritage.”
