The Bushbuck Trail is particularly rewarding as are the shores of the two rivers that bound the village. Some of the rare birds that one can expect include Pied Mannikin, African Broadbill, Spotted Thrush, African Finfoot and Broad-tailed Warbler. Pelagic birds abound during the annual sardine migration in June/July and the Barn (European) Swallows over the reed beds at Umkobi are spectacular at sunset November to March.
In July 2004, Southbroom Conservancy encouraged a group of enthusiasts to list birds in the Southbroom geographical boundary that are included on the "Birds of the Lower South Coast of Kwazulu-Natal" list. They have made an excellent job of it, but still have a way to go.
