The Florence Bloom Bird Sanctuary is rich in a diverse variety of flora and fauna, and is a natural home for a number of birds.
Shy birds like Cape weavers, African black duck, little grebe and grass owls assemble near the sanctuary's lake. Egyptian geese have also been seen gliding in the backwaters of the sanctuary. There are little rush warbler, willow warbler and tawny-flanked prinia.
Some of the other inhabitants of the sanctuary are corncrake, Cape and lappet-faced vultures and brown snake eagles.
There are also two hides, one of which has a paved pathway suitable for paraplegics. Many small mammals also reside in this park, such as mongoose, hedgehogs, genets and shrews.
The park is also ideal for mountain biking, kite flying and orientation exercises.
