Photo series taken on the Cape of Good Hope, there was a strange layer of fog creeping over Cape Town. Luckily we managed to get a few clean shots before the whole mountain and town was covered.
Along the cliff, there were many sea bird nests. Press L to see if you can see them :)

(Water guzzler hike)
Shortly after turning off of the main road (San Juan County Road 142, incorrectly called "Potash Road"), Jim and I had this view od the road ahead. Not long after this we crossed a dry wash. Th \e old mining road to the water guzzler is somewhere on the cliffs, ascending leftward.

(Thamnolaea cinnamomeiventris)
The mocking cliff chat, mocking chat or cliff chat, is a species of chat in the family Muscicapidae which occurs in rocky habitats in much of eastern Sub-Saharan Africa.
The mocking cliff chat is a large chat with distinctive colouration. The male has a glossy black with a chestnut belly, vent, and rump and white shoulder patches. The shoulder patches vary in size geographically. The female is dark grey with a chestnut lower breast, belly, and vent. The mocking cliff chat has a length of 19–21 cm and weigh 41–51g.
A loud fluty melodious warbling song which often contains many rapid fire phrases mimicking other species, with some harsher phrases interspersed.
The mocking cliff chat occurs in a neat band from central Ethiopia in the north through east Africa into Zimbabwe, south-eastern Botswana, southern Mozambique and eastern South Africa as far as the far east of Western Cape province. Mostly resident but in the south of its range tends to move to lower altitudes in the winter months.
The mocking cliff chat inhabits rocky and boulder strewn areas, well-wooded rocky ravines, cliffs, gullies, boulder-strewn hillsides and watercourses in valley bottoms with scattered rocks.
