This is where we live.

A place on the southern tip of the African Continent that is surrounded by farms and nature.

A place that when we arrive at home and I get out of the car to open the gate, some of nature's residents have a look at me.

So wonderful to see the little and big birds welcoming us home, even amidst their late supper. One feels a part of nature here, and let me tell you that it is a great feeling.
We have a powercut in 20 minutes and I can't talk too much.

First up was a Cape Spurfowl at the front gate.

Then we had a little Swee with a grass seed in his beak, also looking at me.

This Cape Sparrow came to sit on the gate post to have a proper look at me.

Raining here now and I took a shot of the hills about an hour ago.

Life is interesting when you allow it to show you the treasures in nature, and it is also healthy with fresh mountain air. Although nature is beautiful, it can also become very dangerous as we can see in the current Fiona Hurricane that creates so much damage in the islands.
We simply have to pull up our socks and roll up our sleeves, and get stuck into negating all the damages that we have caused. Global warming is very real and we should all be worried about it.
Just my own thoughts.

Hope you have enjoyed the photos.

And That's All Friends.

I went for a moment to the film Africa of mine.

It is too much what nature keeps giving us despite how hard we keep treating it. The longevity of the "pacha mama" will depend on the integrity, honesty and self-respect of the people, their rulers and, of course, of all of us who make use of her.

A strong embrace from afar dear @papilloncharity!

Agreed but nowadays integrity, honesty and self-respect have become strangers to most. Bribes and quick riches rule and that is why nature has become endangered.

Thank you and I return your warm embrace with my own @bravofenix

Oh my! You're definitely staying in the most beautiful part of Africa. Never seen a spurfowl in my life. It's my first time seeing such a bird. It's cute.

I wouldn't say that Gina as Africa is a very big continent with really stunningly beautiful places.
The spurfowls only appear down here in the Cape and I was also surprised to see them for the first time when we moved down here 4 years ago.
I like the intricate designs on their wings.
