    Notes We “endeavoured” to do our CWAC count today the 29th Feb. We made a pretty good attempt but it is not very scientific as the gale force winds made it exceedingly difficult. Unfortunately due to the road works between Hermanus and Stanford we were unable to get to Maanskybaai or Prawn Flats.
