This project was inspired by "Rarities from Burchell's missing years" - Veld & Flora 36-41 by Roger Stewart & Marion Whitehead 2023.
But some errors need to be fixed.
The article details a few species from Burchells return journey through to the Karoo, to the mouth of the Great Fish River, and back to Cape Town via the coastal plateau.

Everything has burst into blossom this week, daffodils are in full bllom and most leaves are beginning to bud out.
I've been seeing a lot of Canada Geese lately, which makes sense because they usually migrate from the south to the north around springtime for breeding purposes. I've only seen them in the air, in their characteristic V-formation. I've also seen two Northern Cardinals, a Downy Woodpecker, an American Robin, a Blue Jay, and heard Mourning Doves on my walks home from school (N Prospect St).
Looking up these birds' migration patterns, I learned:
Northern Cardinals are year-round r...

The April pollinator walk will be held on Saturday April 29th from 2:00-3:00pm at Nose Hill Park. *weather dependent

William John Burchell, English Explorer, naturalist, traveller, artist, and author was born in 1792. The son of a wealthy nurseryman. Burchell travelled nearly 7 000 km throughout South Africa between 1810 and 1815, collecting specimens of animals and plants. He described his journey in a book titled Travels in the Interior of Southern Africa. His collection contains the most extensive examples of African fauna and flora. Burchell's travels, however, exhausted hi...

"Lo que más me gusta de la biología es que te permite disfrutar de la naturaleza de otra manera" Una pequeña refelxión que me deja uno de mis profesores de licenciatura, he de decir, estoy totalmente de acuerdo con el. ¿Quíen más tiene el lujo de poder mirar las estrellas en medio de un bosque a mitad de la noche? ¿Existe algo mejor que dsifrutar la vista desde lo alto de una montaña? ¿Cómo no enamorarte al sentir el agua del óceano y observar como desde la superficie hasta las partes...
