Re: Our Pilanesberg Adventures
Thank you. They have nests in the hide and I think they get quite put out about the people...they fly straight towards you and veer off at the last second!
The bush is very dense! Yes, it's a treat to see rhinos now.
Thanks so much Pumbaa.

Re: Our Pilanesberg Adventures
This was a first for me in Pilanesberg - a Shaft-tailed Whydah.
And with a friend.
I think this is a Pipit, but not sure which one...African?
Another curious kudu.
Not kudu!!

Lovely Whydah pic....and with the whole tail in the frame
IMO the pipit is a lark....Short-clawed
I like your not-kudus in the grass

Nice sightings - especially the Rhino, and the Whydah
I could never go for just a day.
Would have to stay over for a night or two.

Hi Dzombo,
I also prefer staying over but we couldn't this time, and I was exhausted when I got home....I drove for 12 hours!
