Calling all Artists in Rooiels -- some of you were featured in the recent Breeze and Leeann is in touch with you directly. But........please would all the other artists in Rooiels be in touch with LeeAnn. It would be so good if we could include you all into the new Book that is being produced about Rooiels. So if you take photos, or paint, or sculpt or make music, or theatre, or videography, or have any other contact with the arts......please email Lee ([email protected]) or [email protected] PLEASE avoid feeding the baboons. Baboons get far more calories from our food and so they will always take the opportunity to take it. If you feed them then you make them think of us as food targets! For many years we have been walking close to the baboons with no problem, even with our dogs. But to keep that privilege and to ensure we reduce conflict between people and baboons, we need to avoid them getting food. Go to the Baboon page to learn about living with baboons in Rooiels. "The Human-Baboon Interface in Rooiels" a talk by Joselyn Mormile hosted by the Kogelberg Botanical Society Saturday 17th February at 1800 (6 p.m.) Harold Porter - Nivenia Hall Joselyn has some very interesting observations about our baboon troop; what they eat, where they go and their relationships. See the Poster on Rooiels Chat Go to the Field Notes to see some feedback from Rooielsers on the beauty that surrounds us. The seas have been wonderfully warm and the order of the day has been swimming and enjoying the beach while the south-easter took a break! The Hack has been really making a dent on all those Rooikrans seedlings, although we still need to keep on top of them and the Port Jacksons are a bit tougher to deal with. A big thanks from us all to Dick Lockley for his tireless efforts to co-ordinate weeding and the hack. Next Hack 3rd March and a notice will be sent out beforehand with details. It would be so good if more of our new residents came. It is a really great way to meet fellow Rooielsers at the Hack tea afterwards!
