Evan is our American volunteer, who will be working with us for the year.

He is photographing as many plants and animals in renosterveld as he can over this period and uploading many of these images onto I-Spot (www.ispot.org.za) for adding to the central database, as well as getting assistance with IDs.

The idea is that we develop our renosterveld database in a way that will guide us for future conservation action in the Overberg's lowlands.

In our spring surveys, we have found new populations of several threatened species, which is very exciting!!
 

For example, this is Gladiolus vandermerwei, Endangered.
 

Then there is Moraea tricolor, a real little gem...

 

And this wonderful little Klein Karoo (Robertson) Chameleon...
