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.
The Grootbos Foundation and Cape Nature recently joined forces, along with Zak Essa from the Presidential Employment Stimulus Fund, to meet with the biodiversity stewardship team working tirelessly to clear invasive plants from the dunes in Walker Bay Nature Reserve. This collaboration aims to assess the progress made in the past 7 months and strategize for future dune-clearing initiatives.
It's inspiring to witness such dedication to preserving our natural habitats! This partnership highlights the importance of collective efforts in conservation and showcases the impact of collaborations between organizations like the Grootbos Foundation, Cape Nature, and the current Social Employment Fund (SEF), supported by Brownie Points.

From all of us at Grootbos Foundation, we wish you a fabulous weekend full of wild discoveries.
