Haha, dis nou wat ek ‘n saamry geleentheid noem! Goeie video, dankie Joubert.
Baie dankie, Corna!
Jy raak nou ernstig goed met jou videos, de Wet! Ek hou van jou musiek hierby, het Joubert darem enige insae as jy als so bymekaar sit? In watter standerd is hy nou? Garsfontein hoërskool, né?
Baie dankie, Una. Ja, net soos met die foto’s kan ek en Joubert nou lekker saamwerk aan die videos – nog n lekker dimensie aan ons tyd saam! Hy is hierdie jaar in Graad 9, kan jy glo!?
I enjoy watching dung beetles at work!
I don’t know why, but I find watching dung beetles at work oddly soothing. Probably because they make such a terrible job look so easy. They’re rather inspiring!
Their tenacity is admirable.
Net gewag dat roller die ryer afskop. Waar kry hul die krag en energie om so aan te hou met rol? Nou moet die gat ook nog gegrawe word om bol in te bere. Tussentyd ry een net saam.
Wie sou kon dink dat daar genoeg brandstof in mis is om die kruiers so te laat wiel, ne!?
Haha, beslis. Mis is baie sterk brandstof as mens dit so kon stel. Wys jou ook wat voortbestaan aan so ‘n kruier kan doen.
Sjoe, maar hy laat wiel! Mevrou Toktokkie was sekerlik duiselig na dese.
Sy moet behoorlik klou aan die misbol! 😀
That’s amazing…and funny.
Great entertainment to watch in real life, Janet!
That was like a circus act. Tell Joubert I got dizzy watching it. 😵💫
If you could find a crowd at your end Tracy we’ll send over a troop of dung beetles for a live performance! 😀
We have dung beetles. Not quite as large as yours. Not circus performers either. 🙂
