Our parting shot this week is of the fiscal flycatcher babies that were born a week ago in a nest just outside our office.
Spotted on the Grootbos Reserve!

The Peregrine Falcon, the fastest animal on the planet! It can reach speeds of over 350 km/h in a hunting dive, striking its prey in an instant.

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