Apply for exceptional insect expedition
Dear Volunteers,
440mm of rain - imagine what this means for life in the Kalahari Desert - it is thriving!
The timing for our entomological expedition is thus perfect! We are convinced we will find a couple of new species over there. It is truly a unique opportunity for researchers to come and visit Kuzikus now, collect data in an exceptional environment. In fact, we will have professional entomologists on site, a perfect opportunity for students to gain insights into field entomology and get in touch with the experts.
We would love to hear from you (see link)! Closing date is soon, so apply soon to get organised for a great adventure :-)
Best wishes,
Your BRinK-Team

Arrival of Storks
Over 350mm rain already, more than we expect in a year in this area. The pans are filled and lakes are everywhere. The vegetation is thriving and hundreds of black storks have arrived.....

Flamingos in Kuzikus
Over 70mm rain in one day and the first Flamingo in thirty years! This is evidence of how variable our Kalahari Desert can be - a true paradise.
Kuzikus presents a regional hotspot, especially for wading birds, due to its open water sources (on the picture: pan "Ochsenposten"). This is probably why we have special encounters like these sometimes. We hope to welcome you on Kuzikus soon (again) to share amazing moments like these.

PS: Don't forget to come and see us to learn more about BRinK, since we are visiting the UK, Switzerland, Germany and US. See last post.
