Cape Town rumour: "The tall eulophia orchids are flowering at Kirstenbosch. You'll find them under the palm trees near the otter pond." So I went, but they were gone, most of them anyway. I think found one bloom, but am not sure. But I found a million other things. Here are some of them.

Sitting on the grass at Kirstenbosch, taking a break from taking photographs, I peeled a clemengold naartjie - and saw this feather dropped by an Egyptian goose. That's what I love about my new macro lens; finding a whole world in something as tiny as a feather and a blade of grass. | |
