Austin Roberts Bird Sanctuary

Nice bird hide, nice place to visit.
Do struggle to get access to the rest of the park as you apparently need an apartment, but the document at the gate states you only need appointments for guided tours.
Think summer months will be better to visit as bird activity isn't great.

If someone knows how to get access to the rest of the sanctuary please let me know

This is a beautiful peaceful oasis in the city. If you love nature and birding or are having a hectic day and need to see some tranquility. This is the place to go!

Visiting the Austin Roberts Bird Sanctuary is a must if you feel like escaping from the tumult of city life. Although closely situated to Brooklyn Mall, the sanctuary is peaceful and tranquil, creating the illusion of being in a bird hide in the Kruger National Park. The hide is clean and well maintained, and the guard on duty is always friendly. There is no clearly demarcated parking area, but there is space outside the gate. No fees either!

Awesome place for birding...Very well kept and has nice hides...There is a car guard where you park and a restaurant nearby...I would reccomend it to anybody that likes birding or photography.

Open till 6pm, with beautiful light around sunset. The surrounding parks and ponds host diverse birdlife, so bring your camera.

Enjoyed a peaceful Sunday. Had a wonderful lunch while watching the waterbirds.

Difficult to navigate because there is a long fence and the entrance is not properly marked. However, the place was peaceful and well maintained
