I love discovering new treasures. Found this beautiful Mubicassya (Fernandoa magnifica) tree. The flowers immediately reminded me of the Sausage tree, Kigelia africana, which is exactly next to where I found it in the tree book.

Local cuisine. One of the men working with us on the farm loves harvesting these worms/grubs every now and again. He knows how to find a tree where they live and chops of the bark to take them out. Now I am fan of Masonga or Mopane worms as they are eaten in Limpopo province. Cleaned, boiled, salted and dried. Nice proteïen snack. These however... 👀

Sound-on. A short snippet of the sound of a Black-crowned Tchagra. One of my current favourite sounds of the bush. If you have a bird-app and don't know the sound, go do yourself a favour and listen to the full song. A sound I used to listen to on my app and now get spoiled to hear quite often!

Enjoying my abundance of tomatoes! Love eating veggies from my garden.

We are back from very short but sweet weekend in the Kruger Park. New memories made. Shingwedzi camp staff are excellent. @sanparks

It is almost time again! I can't wait! KNP-time.

Tuesdays are for Trailcamming... BADGER!! Check the video on my Facebook page!

Sunday morning from my garden. Listening to sounds of Emerald-spotted Wood dove, Grey-headed Bushshrike, drumming of a Woodpecker and a briefly the Kolo-kolo sound of a Purple-crested Turaco flying over. Just sitting here having my coffee I see Greater-blue eared Starlings, Cape Turtle Dove, Fork-tailed Drongo, Yellow-bellied Greenbul, Dark-capped Bulbul, Scarlet-chested Sunbird, Purple-Banded Sunbird, Golden-tailed Woodpecker, a pair of Lesser-striped Swallows enjoying the water in my garden and a pair of Pale Batis, hopping around in the tree above my head. The 'coffee-tea or me' sound of the Orange-breasted Bushshrike and the clear melodious sound of the Black-headed Oriole also sounding up amidst the morning show. Pure bliss.

Happy world lion day!
