Re: Walter Sisulu National Botanical Gardens
Just love the birds and insects - you made my day, BluTuna.
The little chicks are adorable
The dragonfly is also very elegant, but not a Common Tigertail, which would spot the eyes apart
The Common Dotted Border is a lovely butterfly, 10/10 for it ... and my fav is, of course, the wasp
Huge flower
A Garden Acraea

It looked like it was some kind of Palm Tree that generated the flower. I think that the one behind and left of the 'Triffid' is the same type.
Thanks for the other corrections and identifications - I was doing this from memory which is not a good idea!
