"Maputo Special Reserve is one of the most beautiful and, at the same time, poorly known conservation areas in southern Africa. The large variety of habitats, ranging from mangrove forest, tidal wetlands, large treeless grass plains to dense sand forest, support an impressive diversity of bird species." It has 800 000 ha in area and lies in the southern corner of Mozambique. Really worth the visit... There I fell like the the bird in the photo... FREE!!!
