99087834/5/20140This appears to be the same nest as http://vmus.adu.org.za/?vm=PHOWN-149, observed by Dieter Oschadleus on 20 Feb 2009. It appears to have been an active nest then. Now it appears broken and disused. This was (almost certainly) the southernmost nest along the N12 on 4 May 2014.
1927778311/5/20160Recorded two years ago as PHOWN 9908, where it says this is also PHOWN 149. Nest looks tatty and disused. This was almost certainly the southernmost nest along the N12 (as also noted on 4 May 2014)
