 Today I had to dig in the archive for a photo!

This photo was taken In the Hluhluwe Imfolozi Game Reserve a while ago.

Quite amazing how the Giraffe gets his tongue to the young shoots through all those thorns!

I also share with you a clipping taken from  a previous edition of the KZN Wildlife newsletter.

This little Jumping Spider lives in my bathroom.

This morning it was sitting against the tiles above the basin.

The joys of living in the country!

The awful CMR Beetles are back in swarms!

Judging by the munch-marks on the flower, they must have menacing mandibles!

The photo below shows how they strip Granadilla of flowers even before they have opened.

I wonder if they are awarded extra stripes for eating the most?

My apologies for the quality of the photo below- the sun was on the wrong side -I tried to make the best of it!
