Makulu Birders House<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Makulu Birders house is situated within the bigger WildsUitvlugt Game farm that is a mere hour\u2019s drive from Pretoria. It boasts a lush garden with some 70 odd indigenous trees, that mostly did not occur on the farm before, established in the garden.  The house sleeps 10 and is a self-catering facility, with a beautiful Lapa and lovely porch from where birds in the garden can be spotted at leisure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our farm is situated on the doorstep of the Dinokeng nature reserve and the Rust der Winter dam, which are both prime birding spots!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Makulu, our birding house you can see <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flycatchers, Sunbirds, Shrike\u2019s, Woodpeckers, to mention but a few and at night you can listen to the call of various Nightjars and other Owls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You have the whole of the farm to walk, drive or go on organised game drives, we also have a smaller gem across the road right on the Elands river where the elusive Finfoot has been spotted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
