Extremely thin and small snake (I think). About 15cm long and no more than about 4 mm thick. On being disturbed it first fled, then curled up.

I'm really not sure what this is. These white fungi always have me stumped.

After the bird killed the hen, I set up the camera in case it returned.

Saw a couple of these on this section - but not many. Altitude around 1300m
I was struggling to get my camera to focus properly on it. A friend got a better one - waiting for her photo to add.

Stopped at the first 'water point', a stream crossing just after ladders & chains on the ascent (Day 1, Arangieskop hike). Saw this guy on the rocks where we were siting.

Took my mom to the orthopedic doc and found these Golden Brackets on a tree stump outside his rooms. Fungi, fungi everywhere.
Also looks like some Cinnabar bracket a bit higher. This must have been a big tree before it got chopped down.

In between being fed, the fledgling was also seen to clamber clumsily around in the trees, picking up and swallowing Acraea acara larvae.

Fish jumping attempts from small pool to bigger upper pool below a waterfall. Length of slope about 3m at 45°. Furthest they got was halfway up. An impressive display!
The stream runs through Afrotemperate Forest.
Could be this - but I know nothing about fish!
