Day 2 – Bird Terror

Merlin – our pup – has one obsession: chasing birds. Initially it was quite an extreme sport, as he was merely 9 weeks old when he discovered the joy of chasing hadedas (a type of large ibis). As it was, a large hadeda was easily 2-3 x bigger than he was…

As he is now 1-year old (and a few kg heavier), I am no longer worried a hadeda will carry him off somewhere. So I let him chase. It keeps him fit – and it keeps hadedas away from our yard, which is a big benefit in itself

Day 2

Day 1 – Little scenery

I am back… After few years of total silence, I’ve decided to revive my blog – mainly to have an outlet to post my Project 365 photos. (see short background in the page ‘Project 365’)

So, for Day 1 we went for a hike in the private farm near Pretoria. I have to say I am rusty. Despite a nice scenery, I did not get many good photos from the trip. Luckily there are always ants…
