The rain has begun

The first post on this blog was mostly bad news about drought. We have since had some rain so here, to balance the harsh photos in the first blog, are some nicer ones. Hope you enjoy them. (I don't have reliable reference books for flowers so I am not absolutely certain of the correct names but I'm sure no-one really cares!)

First rain coming……..
 
Looking across to the Smith's Mine Hills from Muchininga Ridge


After the shower…..
Found amongst rocks near Bumboosie Ruins

Ammocharis tinnea……
 
Flowering in the Mopane, near Kashawe View

Lapeirousia odoratissima
 
Near Kwizizi


Fast asleep!

 
The rhino that attacked us back in June - but in a better mood than he was then.
