Tree Squares | Out of Africa

This month’s Square Challenge is all about trees. Now trees are not the easiest of subjects to square up, so Becky is relying on us to show some imagination in how we present them. For the final day I couldn’t choose just one so please enjoy a taste of Africa.

On Day 3 Septimus (Becky’s ginger cat) was caught up in a tree – does this leopard beat that?

“I had a farm in Africa, at the foot of the Ngong Hills.”

On Day 5 Becky showed us a Milky Eagle Owl – how about a Yellow-billed Hornbill?

Not in a tree, but in amongst the African thorn trees (Acacias) a young Springbok scratches an itch

And finally, three iconic southern African trees.

Dead camel thorn tree at Deadvlei – Sossusvlei

Communal nests of sociable weaver birds

Kokerboom or the quiver tree

Once again, thank you Becky for being a fabulous host of the Square challenge. I am sure now you probably want to retire to a desert for a month after seeing all these trees!
