They presented, hosted and took part in a variety of workshops, talks, round-table discussions and field excursions that were well organised by BirdLife Zimbabwe.
The PAOC brings together ornithologists and conservationists from across the continent, usually every four years. After the 14th congress was held in Dakar, Senegal, in 2016, the next was scheduled to take place in 2020 but was delayed by the pandemic. So after a break of six years, the meeting in Victoria Falls provided an excellent opportunity to network with students, collaborators and researchers face to face. Approximately 275 delegates from 55 nations attended, representing a range of research and conservation organisations.
A formal reception on the Zambezi's riverbank started the proceedings and led into an action-packed week of plenary talks, round-table discussions and 221 oral presentations. Topics were wide-ranging and diverse, from Ernst Retief's overview of the SABAP2 project to descriptions of cutting-edge technology and trackers used to unravel migration patterns.

WATER IS LIFE. As wildlife photographer Greg du Toit knows better than most.
winter wanderer
as summer becomes a memory in the south, the skies are a little quieter as the migrants have returned to the warming north. But one bird endemic to the southern African region takes its own little winter journey.

Southern SIGHTINGS
The late summer period naturally started quietening down after the midsummer excitement, but there were still some classy rarities on offer for birders all over the subregion. As always, none of the records included here have been adjudicated by any of the subregion's Rarities Committees.
flood impact on wetland birds
One of the features of a warming planet is increasingly erratic rainfall; years of drought followed by devastating floods. Fortunately, many waterbirds are pre-adapted to cope with such extremes, especially in southern Africa where they have evolved to exploit episodic rainfall events in semi-arid and arid regions. But how do waterbirds respond to floods in areas where rainfall - and access to water - is more predictable? Peter Ryan explores the consequences of recent floods on the birds of the Western Cape's Olifants River valley.
