The birds that make their home in Bokkom Laan, Velddrif are being chased away and affected by excess vehicular traffic.

Examples of noted excess traffic:

Large delivery vehicles, tourist coaches, large groups of cars in excess of 50 vehicles parking on the bank-side of the road, speeding vehicles and illegal motorboat/jet-ski activity.

Bird species include:

Pelicans, Red Bishops, Kingfishers, Spoonbills and many others.

We need relevant parties to enforce laws and by-laws pertaining to the conservation of the Berg River Estuary area.

Please sign our petition whether you are a local or a tourist. Save the birds!
