Spotted Thick-Knee

This cute bird was seen by me and my friend in Centurion on the lawn of a friend’s house. According to our friend the Spotted Thick-Knee lives in a large bush near his house. Since then we have seen the Thick-Knee several times again on the lawn at night. It’s so shy, but still seems curious enough not to fly away.

Hi Luzelle! My name is Jaco Mostert- I am a journalist at the Centurion News (www.centurionnews.co.za). I have been thinking of doing a nice feature article for the newspaper about birding in Centurion. Since it seems that you are quite the bird enthusiast I would love to meet up with you to discuss the topic.
Now, this is where it gets a bit dodgy: How do you know that I am not a crook? Well, phone the offices of the Centurion News: 012 348 6571 and ask to speak to me. My email address is: jpcmostert@centurionnews.com.

I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT IF YOU GET IN CONTACT WITH ME, SINCE IT WOULD MAKE A VERY NICE ARTICLE! PLEASE!
