The Black Girdled Lizard is indigenous to the South Western Cape. They are seen mostly on rocky outcrops and usually facing the sun (called sonkykers in Afrikaans).
They are listed as “Near Threatened” on the Red List. They are quite popular as pets and are used for traditional medicine.

Day 46 Wild Peach Seed Pods
I couln’t resist taking a picture of these seed pods, the textures, patterns and colour are so interesting and pretty.
I haven’t been able to identify the tree that these seed pods come from so if anyone could assist in the identity it would be appreciated.
Thank you very much Richard Gill and Jack Bold for identifying the tree as Kiggelaria Africana – Seeds of the female Wild Peach Tree

Found this little domestic cat at Intaka Island busy hunting for brown-striped mice for brunch. Managed to re-direct his attention and the mouse got away …. this time.

Day 41 What Would A Visit Be Without A Giraffe
What would a visit to the Kruger National Park be if you couldn’t see a Giraffe, with those long legs and even longer neck and that beautifully marked orange coat? They are so wonderful to see out in the wild, grazing on the treetops and moving so gracefully through the scrub.

Day 40 Wild Flowers That Look Like Zinnias
These sticking orange wildflowers can be seen all along the road side growing in profusion. I don’t know what they are but they resemble the common garden flower the Zinnia.
