"He who roams the bush"
Welcome! This site is a personal record of my journeys through wild places — shared with fellow naturalists, researchers, and conservation stakeholders.
- Trip reports & narratives — field observations from the bush
- Biodiversity data — species lists and distribution notes
- Swadini Biodiversity Project — research reports and dashboards
- Photos — wildlife and habitat imagery from the field
The Swadini area of the Blyde River Canyon region is one of South Africa's most biodiverse hotspots. The reports and dashboards below are based on citizen science records collected over multiple survey seasons.
I am a student of biodiversity, bio-mapping advisor, and citizen scientist, with a particular focus on the Swadini area of the Blyde River Canyon region. The biodiversity reports and dashboards on this site were developed in collaboration with Claude AI.
If you are a researcher, conservationist, or stakeholder interested in the Swadini data, feel free to reach out via GitHub.
Updated regularly as reports and observations are added.
