Breathtaking Winter Views Across Grootbos and...
The parting shot this week is actually in two parts taken across the landscape today, which was a glorious winter's day.
Under the Microscope: The Silver-Striped Hawkmoth
Meet Hippotion celerio, also called the Silver-striped or Vine Hawkmoth - one of nature’s incredible night pollinators!
This fascinating moth hovers like a hummingbird, sipping nectar from night-scented flowers and playing a vital role in pollination.
Known for its speed and agility, the H. celerio is a true survivor, evading predators with ease while helping our ecosystem thrive.
Brought to you by the Grootbos Foundation Entomology Team, celebrating the small creatures that keep nature in balance.
