The Cape Bird Club – 75th Anniversary (2023).

PROGRAMME & CALENDAR OF EVENTS.

2023 is the Cape Bird Club’s 75th Anniversary. Founded in 1948, it is the second oldest bird club in South Africa, after the Wits Bird Club.

Throughout the year there will be many special events and activities for members in celebration of this, some starting in January, although the official anniversary month is May.

All the events and activities will be posted here on this page of the Club’s website, but to ensure you receive all the up to date announcements in time, it is best to be registered to receive these via email, through the Club’s eNewsletter (free).
