It’s World Animal Day, an international day of action for animal welfare, celebrated annually on October 4.

Let’s tackle the challenges facing our animal kingdom head-on, much like this Inverdoorn male lion, standing brave in the face of a strong dust storm.

Home sweet home

Still loads of Mabalingwe photos to download and edit, so in the meantime here’s a nice sunset scene from the wheat fields close to Swellendam and Langeberg mountain in the background.

A little giraffe with a big itch.

One of the many highlights of our short time @mabalingwegamereserve was seeing this young giraffe giving himself a good scratch against the tree stump; so much so that he even lifted his leg like the giant long-necked puppy he is 😄.

LBR and the thunderstorm

A lilac-breasted roller is dwarfed by the fast approaching thunderstorm cell, typified by the huge cumulonimbus clouds.

Thank goodness for digital.

I took heaps of photos before getting close to my target shot of a hippo blowing spray at sunrise. Still not the shot I want, but trying is so part of the fun!

Zazu sorting out the pesky paper wasp that was flying around its head seconds before. After the tasty bite, some necessary cleaning took place.

Our garden is starting to attract pretty little visitors; one of them this malachite sunbird, who showed a preference for the yellow pin-cushion instead of the red. Both flowering nicely in their second season in the garden.
