Austin Roberts Bird Sanctuary : ウィキペディア英語版 | Austin Roberts Bird Sanctuary __NOTOC__ The Austin Roberts (Memorial) Bird Sanctuary is a nature reserve located in the Walkerspruit Open Space System, in the Nieuw Muckleneuk suburb of Pretoria, South Africa. It became the first bird refuge in Pretoria when it was opened by the then mayor of Pretoria, Mr. W. J. Seymore, on 27 October 1956.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url = http://www.southafricaexplorer.co.za/attractions/austin-roberts-bird-sanctuary-brooklyn/austin-roberts-bird-sanctuary-brooklyn.html )〕 It was officially proclaimed as a nature reserve on 26 February 1958, and it was fenced in June 1970. The sanctuary is named after South Africa's well-known ornithologist and mammalogist, J. Austin Roberts. He was born in Pretoria in 1883, but grew up in Potchefstroom as a minister's son, where the local amateur ornithologist, Thomas Ayres, was his mentor. ==Access== Free access is limited to the bird hide, which is reached from the northern perimeter, where a small exhibition facility is located. It has been declared a provincial heritage site due to its recreational and educational value.
