Giraffes at Blouberg Nature Reserve a few weeks ago. They are so relaxed there.

Levaillant's Cuckoo (Clamator levaillantii) is a brood parasite that lays its eggs in the nests of Arrow- marked Babbler (Turdoides jardineii). The babblers then raise the cuckoo chicks as their own.
This family is particularly interesting as it is not just one cuckoo, but two that the babblers are parenting. Double the work! Thankfully, the group of 10-15 all take care of them and make sure that they are fed.

Beautiful Blue Water Lilies (Nymphaea nouchali var. caerulea) always pop up after the rain.

They are found all around South Africa and spread through the continent all the way to Egypt.
