Adult and two juveniles foraging on Felicia and Falkia repens leaves or seeds? Falkia and Felicia are in abundance in my garden after the recent rain. A male Spotted Eagle-Owl has been calling on my neighbor's roof for the last two nights. Nor sure how long the Vlei Rats will survive. My main concern is trigger-happy residents poisoning the rats and killing their predators. Pesticides and Ratex is a local favorite!

on leaf of malvaceae sp

I thought it was a wasp. Perhaps it was ! It fooled me.
It quickly flew away.
I estimate it is about 6-8 mm long

Mating pair. The one (I'm assuming the female) is supporting the weight of both of them, at this incredible angle. They were in this position for more than 4 hours (I stopped checking after that).
