Johan, jou verduideliking maak baie sin. Ek het daai outjie so teen 18h00 gevang...hy was sekerlik besig on "nes" te skop vir die aand.

Soos jy sê Deziree...aangename kennis. Daai trup deur Botswana na Namibia, Swakop was wonderlik! Ek het hordes fotos geneem! As jy ooit kans kry maak so!.

Now this is becoming an interesting one. I also see it clamping on this link. http://www.zandvleitrust.org.za/art-ZIMP...

When the bee clamps like that on a stem, it is to rest for the night since it does not have a nest. What time of day was this taken?

Ja nee! Aangename kennis Mari. Dankie Johan. Eendag is eendag dan gaan ek ook in "Nam" (soos die Amerikaners graag se) gaan kiekies vat! Jou werk is pragtig Mari.

Maybe its time you meet. Mari is from Pretoria and Deziree is from Fish Hoek. Ons Afrikaners moet maar saamstaan!
