A bird of a different kind
posted by Kerry-Anne
This bird, of the species Helicopterus maximus, was parked outside a hotel in Somerset West - a very pretty, leafy area about 40 minutes from central Cape Town. Imagine the convenience of using a helicopter to get around - no more traffic jams, no more robots (that's what we call traffic lights in South Africa), no other drivers doing silly things in front of you... and a beautiful view too!Pay a visit to Durban Daily Photo today and see a picture of the oldest public building in the city. Durban is situated along the south-east coast of South Africa, about 1600km from Cape Town.

Hi Kerry-anne - I've had blogging troubles (server) so have found it difficult to visit as downloading takes hours. i can't actually see this amazing bird Helicopter Maximus but I have seen them in PNG - they are very common.
There is a variety here that look similar - they land next door on the resort lawns and scare the hell out of everyone. I think they must have a nest nearby!!!
Never been in one. What outfit does one wear for such an occasion. Kerry-Anne can i wear the little black dress and kitten heels for THIS?
