A great post here about nature!
Blessings!

Kind of you to do that, @papilloncharity. Just so that you know, that account is worth nothing so the downvote doesn't make any difference. It's just an awful thing to do, though. I don't understand it.

That guy has been around for a couple of months, thanks for support in downvote, I have mentioned him in communities, he is an irritant!

Thanks for visiting Stephen.

He holds the distinction of my first downvote Lady Joan, but such is life!
Blessings!

This is a good post, thanks...

Thanks for visiting, appreciate the kind comment.

Awesome to be so close to wild nature. It's too bad that there are those people who think it's OK to feed wild animals. It can be dangerous to both the animal and human when they lose their fear of humans. Wonderful photos and description, Joan! You're really brave with the snakes.

Don't believe I am brave anywhere near snakes, have had to learn which ones are approachable and which ones aren't Roger. When I was younger it would not take much for me to go straight up the walking stick and land twenty foot away becoming airborne in fear of snakes...

it looks bed to see this animal in cage.
Beautiful photographs my friend...

Animals need their freedom without human interference, thanks for visiting.

Great photos, @joanstewart. Is the baboon in your first photo injured?

That mother and baby are so sweet. As for snakes - pretty or not, I prefer to give them a wide berth. That said, we do get harlequin snakes around here and they are really beautiful little things. I prefer it if the cats don't catch them.

Yes he was injured Fiona, obviously fighting for his male rights, he was an imposing figure around the area.

Snakes do so much good, I too give them wide berth irrespective of knowing they are not venomous, how my brother even considered stopping to photograph the Rinkhals was beyond me, I would have been out of there in a flash.

Awesome post! The baboon climbing the wall looks so sneaky and fun hahaha. The ones I'm not a fan of are the snakes but nature it is what it is, we can't choose what to keep or what to discard, or at least we shouldn't.

Thanks for sharing!

Baboon caused havoc with everyone being on their guard. Snakes play a big role in nature, best to leave well alone.

Appreciate your visit and comment.

Gr8 Post Joan.

One of my most favorite memories is of tracking wild monkeys in the jungle in Thailand. These are different animals but it reminded me of that, lovely pics :)

Thanks Raj, we have monkeys in our village (also naughty), the baboons are more fearsome due to size.

Seems like you had quite the trip mate. The Baboons are super dope. Was that drink the little bird is standing on alcohol? It must have been real funny to see a drunk bird lol. Great Pictures dude.

Guava juice around breakfast in the morning attracted the bird down to enjoy some, no drunk birds 😊😊

Such neat animals! It's too bad that they are such a menace. In the mountains here in California we get bears that will get the taste of human food and become a problem. Breaking into houses, cars, and dumpsters to get it.

People have allowed this all to happen, we develop onto the land without giving the animals much space.

Would love to see a bear in the wild one day Derek, I can well believe how scary it must be having your homes terrorized by bears.

Totally agree. Humans have been quite stupid when it comes to dealing with wild animal populations. Usually just making the problems worse more than making them better. Here in California we only have black bears and not the aggressive grizzly bears, so for the most part they are not a problem. But when they get the taste of human food they can become a nuisance like bear #514 was for me for awhile. He wasn't mean... just wouldn't leave me alone!

Hahaha and the first thing we give children are Teddy Bears to cuddle up to, makes you think! #514 sure would have fun going through trash cans and disrupting life, because now he knows he can!
