After:

lol .One of the other visitors at the picnic spot advised us there was some Wild dogs about 2km further down the road .

We left and carried on towards tshokwane and found the Wild Dogs very easily O** ...as there was a car stop by them already lol

Image

Image

We spent some time enjoying their playful antics
Image

Image

Some more cars arrived so we decided to move on.

We found some Ostriches
Image

A kori bustard walk alongside us for a bit on the H10
Image

Just before we stopped at Lower Sabie we watched the Giant Kingfisher on the bridge

After the stop at Lower Sabie we carried on towards croc bridge .We came across this Malachite kingfisher a bit far but you can still make out the colors .Wishing for a longer lens ...

Image

We came across some flat Lion sighting over theeeeer .Took a quick out of focus pic and moved on O**

Image

This tawny was finishing off his pigeon lunch when we spotted him
Image

We found this dung beatle with a swarm of helper fly's assisting him to just keep rolling along
Image

On the Gezantombi waterhole bride we spotted this little guy sticking his head out

Image

Some Ellies were filling up.

We exited at went back to Marloth ....
