For several years after the Karkloof Conservation Centre opened I had the mutters because I had only once seen a Giant Kingfisher and when I did it was so camera shy I couldn't get a good picture. A much braver bird put in an appearance and gave me the chance to take too many shots – that's the problem with digital photography!
Twané was lucky to get this shot of a male Diderick Cuckoo feeding a female – the way to a woman's heart is through her stomach. The male fed her 3 juicy caterpillars and offered them to her with a gentle bobbing motion. They flew off into the sunset after the third one.
