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.
At Grootbos Foundation, our commitment to conservation is rooted in the rich tapestry of botanical science and research. Spearheading this vital endeavour is our inspirational Conservation Director, Sean Privett.
Recently, Sean took the opportunity to share his expertise with entomology interns, delving into the basics of plant identification. After all, at Grootbos, we understand that plants and insects are intertwined, much like peas and carrots!

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