Over the course of the past 2 weeks myself & a friend, Toby, traveled throughout South Africa, doing over 6000km's worth of driving & seeing most of this countries beautiful provinces. It's a roadtrip we planned over a year ago & although not a 'herping trip' per say, I still had a scratch with another mate & turned up these species during the two days spent in Bloemfontein.
