Bowie's dad

I completely misread this! The constipation must've been terrible! Happy birding 🙂

love it!

Always wonderful pottery and glazes!

Have you ever tried shades of violet or purple? My knowledge of glazes is piss-poor

"When the ripe seeds are released, the ants seize them by these elaiosomes and rush off with them to their nests. There the elaiosomes are eaten and the hard seeds are then either discarded within the nest or deposited on the ants’ midden."

Reseeding,
resprouting,
the veld recovers slowly.
The March flower show continues.

Enjoy d'weekend 🌸

Any reference please to a book / paper / article on meaningful human control in autonomous weapons in the context of international humanitarian law? Not for professional purposes, just interest. I'm a layperson in this area so basic is good, but I'm also happy to work my way through some complexity.

Lucky is busy cleaning the seeding pods for new buchu plantings. Soapy water and a toothbrush, every pod - it'll take a while 🌱

the best 🐕🐕💚

Bowie's been herding guinea fowl on a drizzly morning. Ons kla nie, there's another heatwave coming next week

Bowie and Ravi had a lekker play by the sea before we drove 150 km back to the cottage 🐕🐕

Bowie found 'n kleintjie 🧸

Bowie and I are off to see an Ouma in Lamberts Bay, driving via Clanwilliam to get farm-fresh mango at De Kleine Schuur

The buchu harvesting has been completed for this year

Ants busy pollinating a Bloodlily 🐜🌸

Recovery of the veld after the fires. I'm on the lookout for Fire Lily, not yet 🌱

I'll try anything once. So far, sheep's brain, fermented shark and Chinese pickled egg are on the "once only" list

My first time eating spleen. Quite lekker, and bit like liver

oh dear!

Albert & Vossie are going to paint the cottage roof. Neither has a fear of heights, but Albert doesn't like spiders. I'm the opposite 🙃

On the plaas, it's buchu harvesting today

Bowie's all excited after herding guinea fowl. Dom voëls, the thought of flying away didn't seem to occur to them

good morning 🌻

sunset walk: Bloodlily 🌸

Hoe lekker lag ek nou!

Yoh, I remember those, though never had one myself

I had forgotten that one!

Pieter Dirk Uys! He came to our school in 1979 and we watched numerous of his shows on video. His plekkie in Darling is a treat!

extremely scary! 😱
