Fiscal Flycatcher Babies Thrive
Our parting shot this week is of the fiscal flycatcher babies that were born a week ago in a nest just outside our office.

Witness the beauty of success in conservation efforts with the Grootbos Foundation!
At first glance, this photo may seem unassuming, but to those who understand, it's a testament to remarkable progress. Here, we see the thriving growth of Leucadendron elimense in a servitude block at Lomond, a member of the Walker Bay Fynbos Conservancy. Elimense is a rare and endangered plant species native to Elim Ferricrete Fynbos, a vegetation type facing critical endangerment.
This image showcases the tangible impact of the dedicated work carried out by our Conservation Research team every single day. Each new leaf and blossom signifies a step forward in our mission to preserve and protect our precious natural heritage.
Join us in celebrating these small victories that contribute to a larger, brighter future for our environment. Together, we can continue to make a difference.

Thank you for the kind messages of concern and care this week as an early summer fynbos fire burned between Gansbaai and Stanford.
The view at Grootbos shows a clear outline of where the fire moved towards the Walker Bay area and onto the reserve.
From all of us at Grootbos Foundation, we wish you a fabulous weekend full of wild discoveries.
