Discovering the Tiny Treasures of the Cape Floral Kingdom
Exploring the wine regions around Cape Town isn’t just about world-class vintages—it’s also a chance to uncover the incredible biodiversity of the Cape Floral Kingdom. With my camera in hand, I was thrilled to capture this stunning Malachite sunbird, perched perfectly for a brief moment before darting off to chase a nearby female.
These vibrant, territorial birds are a joy to watch, and with a little patience, you might see them return to their favorite spots. The natural beauty of this region truly goes beyond its vineyards!

On foot, following a pack of wild dogs on the hunt — there’s nothing quite like it. 🐾
Wild dogs are one of Africa’s rarest predators, and witnessing them on the move, away from the safety of a vehicle, is truly as wild and raw as it gets.

There are so many special little treasures to discover around camp on safari! Any guesses on the name of this bird?

*Evening Magic in the Hide*
After sunset, we settled into the hide, waiting quietly, anticipation building. Just then, through a gap in the dry forest, a small, excited herd of elephants emerged along a well-worn animal path, almost breaking into a run as they made their way to the waterhole.

An unforgettable moment on foot in Lower Zambezi National Park at Lolebezi – a porcupine family completely unaware of our presence! 🦔
I’ve seen a handful of porcupines over the years, but never this close or this intimate while on a walking safari. These are some of the most crazy-looking creatures on the planet! This is the coolest video you will see today. Experiencing wildlife like this, up close and personal, reminds me of why the bush never loses its magic. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime encounter!
Captured on my canon R5 mk2 with a 100-500 L lens the perfect combination for a walking safari!
