sa couples club

Southern Africa currently has a list of over 950 species recorded within its boundaries and this list is for couples who birdwatch together. The totals reflected are the aggregate totals of both of their Southern African lists put together. Each of the couples would have to have individually seen over 500 species within Southern Africa. If your names do not appear on the list, but you fall into this category and would like to be on the list, please email us your details and we will add you to the list. If your total has changed since publication of this list, please also send us your revised total to amend the list.

 
As at 23 February 2022, there are 259 couples on the list.
