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.
We’re proud to share that South Africa is returning to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, and Grootbos is sending four team members to help build the fynbos display!
Chris Lochner and Bulelani Bashe are back for their second year, while Amy Williams and Shiluva Khosa will be heading over for the first time.
Join us online on 15 May 2025 to catch up with the team during the busy build-week in the UK. They’ll take us behind the scenes as they prepare for the official opening on 20 May 2025.

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.
