  1. A new concrete bee hive that is (we hope!) Honey badger, baboon and fire proof. It is surrounded by plants of the fynbos biome.
    The photo qualifies as a #SilentSunday image because the hive is new and the bees haven't found it yet. But equally it is 20 km from the nearest town or tar road and so the silence is totally natural.

  6. but have you ever even heard of the fynbos biome ?

    A biome so unique in South Africa that it's earned an entirely new biome classification for itself. so many plants are endemic to this area, and ofc it's under threat of extinction.

  11. Freesia caryophyllacea is a dwarf, perennial geophyte endemic to the #WesternCape and forms part of the #fynbos. The species occurs from #Wolseley to #Swellendam, #Hermanus and the #AgulhasPlain. The plant grows to a height of 5 to 10 cm. The plant has already lost 77% of its habitat to agricultural activities, urban development and invasive plants. The phenomenon is still ongoing.

  12. A Painted Lady flower. Endemic to the Fynbos biome in full spring time bloom. The wild patches are sprinkled with beautiful pink flowers

  16. A mountain pool refuge for bubbles in a hasty stream.

    For those with a keen eye for detail, the water is a reddish brown colour caused by the Fynbos flora through which it flows

  26. Although I saw 35 ‘lifers’ today, 1 stopped me in my tracks - the Orange-breasted Sunbird. Wow such colours. The young Boomslang snake was a good spot too.

  28. Helderberg nature reserve in Somerset West.

    This bit of paradise sits on the edge of the City of Cape Town metro area.

    A massive fire tore through here a few years ago, but the fynbos is doing what fynbos does: regenerating spectacularly.

  33. @cybersyndrome I hadn’t heard of it before. I’m geofenced out of using the #Fynbos service, however. “Country not yet supported. Join the waitlist.” I see that @Jeremiah is on it, he might have some thoughts.
