golf course, and both Chirinda Apalis and Roberts's Warbler can be seen here. Yellow-bellied Waxbill feed regularly on the grass next to the car park. The patch of acacia abysinnica woodland next to Leopard Rock Hotel has produced some interesting birds over the years including Cinnamonbreasted Tit and Spotted Creeper. If time allows take a walk in the miombo woodland along Tom Hulley Road (well before Leopard Rock Hotel) to look for Cinnamonbreasted Tit and Cabanis's Bunting. More
