This is the first book dedicated to birding in South Africa’s national parks. The 19 featured national parks are grouped within the four biogeographic regions – northern, arid, frontier and Cape regions. The book offers a concise introduction and summary of birding within each park.
Pertinent and interesting facts about where to find birds, including the top 10 birds of each park and a description of general habitats, are presented in a readable fashion. Over one hundred photographs illustrate some of the special birds found in the parks. Of the 700 regularly seen terrestrial species in South Africa, at least 640 can be found in the 19 national parks, with 13 of the 15 species endemic to South Africa and another 19 of the 20 species endemic to South Africa, Lesotho and Swaziland. Bird species commonly found in each park are listed at the back of the book.
Birding In South Africa's National Parks will be a worthy addition to the bookshelves of bird enthusiasts, particularly birders and ecotourists visiting South Africa from across the world.
This is the original Make a Difference that started the EAGLE
Leadership Series and has lead to the expansion of Dr. Little's
executive coaching work spreading to a national and an
international audience. As an authority on personality and
leadership development, Dr. Little asserts that the greatest myth
about relationships is that they "just happen." The truth is that
all relationships are intentional, and all relationships take work
and investment. If you are not intentionally investing in your
relationships, they will gradually become unhealthy, and eventually
the relationship will end.
He reminds us that relationships are either growing or dying,
and these growths or deaths can be positive or negative, but here's
the good news: you get to choose the relationships in which you're
going to invest You get to choose which relationships you want to
survive. With the right tools, you can make significant
improvements in the relationships that are the most important to
you. This is the power of the Make a Difference model. It gives you
the tools to improve relationships with those you love, live with
and lead.
"Dr. Little provides a powerful resource for anyone who values
relationships of any kind. Professionally, it is a must for
business leaders who care about their people. Personally, it is
very simply a life changer." -David King, Retired Director of
Marshall Space Flight Center, NASA and current Vice President,
Dynetics.
"I highly recommend this book to leaders and anyone else who
values people. Make a Difference will teach you how to be
successful in the most important area of your life...
relationships." -Zake Smith, Executive Vice President of External
Affairs, Alabama Power
"The practical ideas shared by Dr. Little is this book will
help you understand the personality DNA od those around you. You
will learn how to successfully build strong teams at work and make
a difference in the relationships in every area of your life." -

Born out of a desire to commemorate those men from King's Road, St
Albans, who lost their lives in the Great War, the road's current
residents suggested the idea of a lasting memorial. Then came the
task of researching the lives and the families of those men. It
involved many hours of leafing through old newspapers and archives,
obtaining advice from local and national bodies and seeking help
from relatives of the deceased. A further memorial - this book,
which includes a brief history of this street - is the result. The
book was compiled by Compiled by Judy Sutton & Helen Little
with help and support from many others.

humans have 86 billion? Scientists are amazed by its ability to
survive with such a simple nervous system. The final chapter in the
