Interesting the oxpecker gathering, Rog!
Looks like they are picking at some wounds...they basically live off blood!
I've also got lost around Mpondo Dam a few times!

Re: A Quick trip to Kruger during Covid-19
.Think we spend too much time in the South can drive days without using a map
Yes must have broken a number of regulations about parties
Yes always understood them to be after ticks and mites but seem to be digging into some wounds .
Mpondo can be a little tricky with the loops but well posted . Definitely feel it could use a picnic spot there or mini bush camp would be a great place to overnight
Its a happy spot for us as well as Sunset dam .Still looking for the otters there every time

Re: A Quick trip to Kruger during Covid-19
After the dam we found this little fellow
We found a lovely scene back on the river road .
Seemed to be a day of checkups and service for the inmates ...
We came across another interesting Giraffe seemed to have two holes in its face ...
After stopping at Croc Bridge for a break we took our last drive up the H4 .We found a couple of cars parked on the Bridge by the dam and on arriving we found a busy couple taking a break
Cars were quickly banking up .We left them to take their break and carried on the S28 a bit finding this dude ...
We found another Impala getting a service
After reaching the H4 again we found these Batleurs
And the last animal we saw before leaving the park was the same as the first a little punk
On the drive to the house along the fence in Marloth we saw this fellow
And a hippo was out of the water
And that was the end of the Quick trip . Thank you for sticking around for the ride and the comments

Re: A Quick trip to Kruger during Covid-19
You had some very varied sightings, a bit of this and a bit of that, for such a short time. It was certainly worth it
