The chorister robin-chat (Cossypha dichroa) (previously known as the chorister robin) is a species of bird in the family Muscicapidae. It is found in South Africa and Swaziland. Its distribution stretches from the southern Western Cape through the Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, Swaziland and Mpumalanga to northern Limpopo.
Its natural habitat is evergreen forests, especially in the mist belt region. This is a large robin-chat, about 20 cm in length. The chorister robin-chat is identified by its dark upperparts (the ear coverts and lores are slightly darker than the rest of the face, head, neck and back) and yellow-orange underparts. It has no white eye stripe. Juveniles have a sooty, mottled tawny-buff above and below and its tail is red-orange with a dark centre.
The chorister robin-chat is generally solitary. This robin-chat skulks in dense foliage in the forest canopy. In winter it may forage on ground, but usually gleans insects from leaves. It also follows other fauna in its habitat that might disturb insects, which it then hawks. Its diet consists mainly of insects, millipedes, spiders, ticks and fruit in winter. The chorister robin-chat breeds from October to January; it peaks during November. There has been a record where it plays host to red-chested cuckoo, a brood parasite. The chorister robin-chat moves from the interior to coastal forests in winter.

Château Lumiere Built but a descendant of a wealthy tobacco tycoon the Neo-Baroque style building was erected in the early 1900's. The property apparently benefits from some historical protections from the government, it has however remained abandoned since the 1950's and despite several changes in hands no-one has returned to occupy the place.

Prionailurus bengalensis.
Un chat (domestique) du Bengal c'est égaré dans notre quartier depuis plus de six mois et il y survit sans problèmes.
Easy a poursuivi ce petit minou et il s'est réfugié sur une branche du tilleul. Heureusement il a réussi à s'échapper.
Easy chased this little cat and he took refuge on one of the lime tree branches. Fortunately he managed to escape.
Le chat des sables (Felis margarita), appelé aussi chat du désert, chat du général Margueritte ou chat de Margueritte, vit dans les régions désertiques du Maroc, d'Algérie, de Tunisie, de Libye, d'Égypte, d'Israël, du Soudan, du Niger, d'Arabie saoudite, du Qatar, d'Oman, du Yémen, d'Iran, du Pakistan, de Turkménistan et d'Ouzbékistan.
Il chasse des rongeurs, des lézards, des insectes et principalement des gerbilles ainsi que des gerboises. Chasseur nocturne, ses grandes oreilles lui permettent de localiser sa nourriture. Le chat des sables chasse aussi des serpents tels que la vipère à cornes et la vipère des sables venimeuse. Il les assomme d'un violent coup de patte avant de les mordre mortellement au cou. La nourriture est si rare dans le désert que le chat des sables mange à peu près tout ce qu'il trouve, y compris des insectes et des araignées. Il n'a pas besoin d'eau puisqu'il en trouve suffisamment dans ses proies. De l'aube jusqu'au crépuscule il reste dans son terrier.

This little Chat was an absolute beauty. I spent a few days targeting this species in Victoria's North last year. Spending some time with these birds, I was able to observe their behaviours. Each evening, just before sunset, this particular male would choose a staging area & proceed to call for several minutes, which I presume was to his mate whom was often in the same area. I was able to set myself up in the general area as the sun began to set & wait patiently for him to fly in & choose his perch. These birds are often very skittish, but during this evening routine, if I was very quiet & kept very low, I was able to get reasonably close without disturbing him.
Le beau chat d'une voisine. J'espère le revoir car il y a eu un drame il y a quelques jours. J'ai trouvé un gros tas de viscères, sans aucun doute d'un chat victime d'un renard, devant ma porte. Même si je ne souhaite ce sort à aucun chat, je serais particulièrement triste s'il s'agissait de ce chat-ci (dont j'ai oublié le nom) ou de Boris, mon visiteur habituel.
A neighbour's beautiful cat. I hope to see him again because there was a tragedy a few days ago. I found a large pile of entrails, undoubtedly from a cat that had been the victim of a fox, on my doorstep. Even though I wouldn't wish this fate on any cat, I would be particularly sad if it were this cat (whose name I've forgotten) or Boris, my regular visitor.
