A few weeks ago the most recent nest platform and its supporting branch fell down. Ruan Viljoen from the Warriors Academy volunteered to erect a new platorm. The only suitable branch we found is 10m up. We sincerely hope the Bat Hawks accept the new platform.
These pictures show Ruan climbing the tree, attaching the platform in place and a final image of the platform decorated with a few sticks to entice the birds to make their nest there.
Thank you Ruan, hope we can put more nests platforms up.
