View of another dam. This will be buzzing with Weaver activity and kingfishers in spring.
A lower section of the forest waterfall near another restaurant where had breakfast. Frome here there is a pathway to the top of the hill with some stunning views. Unfortunately we did not have the time to do this.

Middle section of waterfall. I could not a decent shot of the top section which was hidden by plants and trees.
Honeysuckle and unidentified yellow flower.
This arrow marked babbler was sitting so beautifully in the sun but he took off just as I pressed the trigger.
Painted Lady.
Black Heart.
