Remember to diarize: And planning

---- 24 April to 27 April 2020 ----

This is the weekend for you to put your photo taking skills to the test.
No observation is unwanted (other than pets, boyfriends etc). Everything nature welcome.

  • Get lots of sleep before the weekend, as you may not get much during it! (Next opportunity to sleep will be 04 May)
  • Send the children to friends. Or better yet, get the children and friends (and husband if you want him around) in on the action.
  • If your camera/phone is GPS enabled, make sure it is on.
  • Vehicle charges for cell phones, and spare batteries packed. No excuses!
  • Make sure you have data aplenty.
  • If using a cell phone for observations make sure that the observation is uploaded and synchronized before logging out. Otherwise it just shows as a blank.
  • Plan your excursions for the 4 days. Do not wait to wake up in the morning to decide over a coffee where to go. Have the coffee packed in your vehicle and drink a cuppa with the sunrise in the field.
  • Remember to pack padkos. You do not want any excuse to return home earlier than after dark.

---- 28th April to 03 May 2020 ----
This is your time to upload your observations and do identifications.
Remember: If you do not know what it is, do not stress. Someone will come along and ID it for you. Just get the observations loaded.
NB: Plan for and around Eskom

---- 04 May 2020 ----
Plan and put in a day leave so you can sleep.

---- 05 May to CNC 2021 -----
Keep up the good work and carry on observing things around you.

---- 2021 ----
Start all over again.
