HAPPY VIEWING !!

DRIVE MOMENTS

What can be seen above the bush ??

A raffie, of course.

Hello there.

Oh no, problems with the jigga. Rexon will investigate

Seems to be that off roading has caused the accelerator cable to malfunction. Here Rexon is walking next to the jigga as fast as it the jigga can go, lol. (Up hill that is)



With the jigga all fixed, Moses takes us out and we spot this Mongoose.

This was the only one showing itself. Moses says it was checking things out while the rest are safe in the mound.


Leopard track but alas that's all I saw of any leopard. Moses sure tried hard to find them though.

Dead tree that has been moved to a spot next to the waterhole. WE is going to use it to put a new cam up. So we'll have another view of the waterhole (from the other end) and they are hoping that this cam catches a lot more animal action.

Area surrounding new cam location. This is going to be so exciting. Hope things go as planned and it's up and running soon.

RECENT DRIVES

Seeing Nature through these eyes is always a treat.

Hornbill out and ...

and dust bathing.

Blue skies over head but not so in the distance

Definitely rain in this one

A small breeding herd of Ellies

The adults weren't very concerned but this youngster just had to show us how 'big' it is getting, lol.

Head shaking was the order if the day, lol. What a cutie !

Catching the drips ?

A couple of very large Bulls were following the Ladies

After leaving the Ellies we came across a female who looked to be going to deliver in the very near future.

This Harem had 2 young ones already.

Classic diamond pattern

This pattern will make it very easy to ID this one in the future. Notice the cheek pattern to your right is different too.

The next morning ...

and we find more Zebras. I looked and as near as I can tell a different bunch from the day before.

Rump pattern that stands out.

Not as distinctive as the other but still not the classic diamond.

Good black mud, a fav of those that wallow.

Francolins out for a stroll.

Dwarf Mongoose starting out their day.

Standing tall.

Lots of them.
