Cape Chatter is back after a very relaxing winter hibernation and is ready to get back into the action of The Cape’s natural world as spring fast approaches (if it hasn’t already arrived!). This edition (No. 96 would you believe), we look back at the last 12 months of species activity and observations and ponder what may lay ahead. Thank you to all those who keenly provide me with their observations – these are really important, so keep them coming. And to those who voluntarily look out for our precious creatures and spend invaluable time monitoring, rescuing and treating our local wildlife – on behalf of the animals – thank you and keep up the great work. To The Cape Development Team, thank you for the great work in building this emerging natural environment for the benefit of the animals and us humans!  Enjoy the read and pictures.
