Aristea Spiralis - A Blue Gem in the Fynbos
Feast your eyes on these beautiful spears of blue in the fynbos - Aristea spiralis!

This past Sunday was Mother’s Day in South Africa, and we took the chance to shine a light on one of nature’s most hardworking moms, from the insect world!
Some insects went the extra mile to protect, feed, and care for their young. These tiny MVPs (Most Valuable Parents) reminded us how powerful parental care can be.
Here’s to all the moms out there - whether they have two legs, six legs, or simply a big heart.
Happy (belated) Mother’s Day to everyone who plays or has played the role of Mom in someone’s life!
