Arrived in Johannesburg from London in the morning and went birding with Selwyn from Rockjumper in the afternoon.

| Sunrock Hotel Gardens - Feeders did attract many birds. |
 |
| Laughing Doves at the Sunrock Hotel |
 |
| Red-headed Finches - Plenty of these at the Sunrock Hotel but a near endemic and not seen elsewhere on our trip. |
 |
| Red-headed Finches |
 |
| Fiscal Flycatcher - Also in the Sunrock gardens. This regional endemic was seen on several days during the trip. |
 |
| Grey-headed Gulls- This breeding colony was close to the airport. |
 |

 |
| Brown Snake Eagle - There were several sightings during the trip. |
