Bookings: Fax/answer 263(0)20-62837 or email: mhumhe@zol.co.zw Recommended for: Bird Watching at Seldomseen: Seldomseen is a well known site for bird watchers who want to glimpse some of the rarer and more secretive of the forest birds. The name is a pun: you seldom see the birds but you often hear them! So bird watching here can be hard work – but very rewarding if you are patient. It was through the bird ringing work and publications of Alec and Cecilia Manson and Peter Mwadziwana that Seldomseen became well known amongst Southern African bird watchers and ornithologists. Alec published some of the first information on the little-known Swynnerton’s Robin, and is still quoted as an authority on the species. Dale Hanmer has continued the ringing work on Seldomseen and regularly publishes her data in the BirdLife Zimbabwe journal, The Honeyguide. Guided Bird Walks are available. Some of our “specials” are: Swynnerton’s Robin Orange Thrush Buff spotted Flufftail Chirinda Apalis Robert’s Warbler (Briar Warbler) Striped cheeked Bulbul Yellow streaked Bulbul Forest Weaver Square tailed Drongo Seldomseen Holiday Cottages Accommodation: Self-catering cottages fully equipped with stove, fridge, cutlery/crockery and linen.
