Super shots 
Is it a dusky or ashy fly-catcher?
A great variety of birds you have there

Jah, I'd take a porch like that. And the temperatures as well to enjoy my morning coffee there. 
Great shots as usual

Re: Grietjie Private Reserve
Yeah.
Life and living in Grietjie is a dream come true for both Sprocky and me.
About 11 years ago we did had a very short look at a lodge here that was for sale but it was, as I said, a very short look.
Never could we have imagined that one day we would both end up living here.
No.
We are not a couple and do not live together. 
Yep.
Shooting animals from the stoep is easy here.
Just for your more expansive views you need to get your lazy butt out of the chair.
