July's Fynbos Rambles
Typical Cape Winter the way it used to be. Cold. And wet. We got only 2 hikes.

We have a Fynbos Rambles on the Cape Peninsula project on iNaturalist. As we work back adding observations from our hikes, we have 570 species. 483 plants, including 35 Peninsula Endemics. 73 assorted animals including 52 arthropods. 12 mushrooms and lichen.
