At low tide in summer you will find waterbirds and waders. These may include Pied Avocet, African Spoonbill, Marsh Sandpiper, Curlew Sandpiper, Ruff, Common Greenshank, Kittlitz’s Plover, Common Sandpiper, African Snipe, African Rail, Black Crake and Caspian Tern.
Rarities sometimes turn up such as Pectoral Sandpiper.
The Grey Plover, Marsh Sandpiper, Greenshank, Curlew Sandpiper and Whimbrel are prominent all year, but particularly in the winter months.
Keep an eye out also for the African Fish Eagle and Osprey.
Occasionally you will struggle to see the bird life when the sheep belonging to local farmer, Mr John Duthie, are tramping around in the mud!
Directions: To find Woodbourne Pan, drive along George Rex Road towards the Heads and Leisure Island. The pan runs along this road on the left near the turnoff to Leisure Island.
You will find a safe parking on the left hand side of the road as you approach the causeway to Leisure Isle.
Cache: This is a not so easy roadside cache. The container holds only a log sheet, but is big enough to contain small tradables. Kindly secure the lid and replace as found.
