Birdlife:
Aquila and its huge natural
wetland is home to 172 species of birds and is also
home to several breeding pairs of the rare and endangered
Black Eagle, after which the Reserve has been named.
Karoo chat, rufous-eared
warbler, fairy flycatcher and yellow-bellied eremomela
can be found on short walks into the surrounding
wilderness. Lark-like Bunting and Black-headed Canary
move in after rain. In the summer months the Booted
Eagle is a regular visitor and the rainy season
attracts Flamingo's to the Reserve.
