Cap Méchant is one of the eeriest landscapes in the Sud Sauvage, with huge lava fields and windswept black cliffs.
Sud Sauvage (Wild South of Reunion), where the unhurried life is complemented by the splendid scenery of fecund volcanic slopes, occasional beaches, waves crashing on the rocky shoreline and country roads that twist like snakes into the Hauts. In both landscape and character, the south coast is where the real wilderness of Réunion begins to unfold. The change of scenery climaxes with the Grand Brûlé, where black lava fields slice through the forest and even reach the ocean at several points.

Lesser yellowlegs showcase a fascinating breeding behavior characterized by seasonal monogamy, where mates rarely reunite in subsequent years. During the mating process, it's the males who take the spotlight, captivating potential partners with impressive flight displays and melodious songs over their nesting and foraging territories. Their assertive performances not only attract females but also demonstrate their dominance as they aggressively defend their territories against rival males. This protective instinct extends to courtship and egg-laying, ensuring that the females they have won over remain safeguarded from competing suitors. Witnessing this intricate dance of attraction and territoriality highlights the remarkable commitment these birds have to their breeding success.
After exploring our yard and house, peering into windows, and walking onto our back porch, the grizzly bear from two nights ago settled in for a snack of bird seed. Thankfully, it hasn't returned since that night. It was merely passing through in search of food, as bears often do. In light of this, we made the responsible choice to remove all bird feeders and store them away. While this may have momentarily puzzled the birds, they'll adapt and find food elsewhere. We'll gladly set the feeders back up when winter arrives, ensuring our feathered friends have the nourishment they need once the bears are fast asleep. By taking these precautions, we're not only protecting our wildlife but also creating a safer environment for all.
