2020 - Summer At Hazyview

[Alf]

Lovely action pictures of the kingfisher

[Lisbeth]

Not much to see there either

My lens must have got humid from the vapour from RP’s teas

A bateleur which was half hidden

“Luckily there are birds around” The giant kingfisher was another first

At the very last stretch of road before the gate, the bateleur had moved out in full sight

Overload of Kingfishers and bateleur to make up for the missing cats

Only one more day left from Kruger....

[Richprins]

Yes indeed a kingfisher day, Lis!

It was lovely, thank you, and sorry about the leopard...

[Lisbeth]

Thank you to you

But please don't mention the leopards

[Mel]

Nothing wrong with those leopards

Lovely sightings all around - that Malachite ->

And the coulds mirroring in the water - just love it

[Pumbaa]

Also love your malachie shots, Lisbeth

They are such beautiful tiny birds For sure also love all the other bird shots as well and indeed luckily there are birds around - I somehow know that phrase but nevertheless we are big fans of the feathered ones

Elephant with Trunk draped over tusk apparently means get the hell out of there ..RP did the right thing ..Happened to me on the S56 years ago ..I reversed into a bush and then he was at my Front Bumper looking at me through the windscreen

[Sprocky]

I love the Bateleur!

[Flutterby]

Glad you found some new kingfishers!

Pity you missed the leopards!

[Lisbeth]

The two kinds of kingfishers were a nice touch, but the day would have been a success in any case. Meeting RP after having "known" him for 12 years was rather special. We have had our ups and downs, but basically, with all our differences, I think that we respect each other and face to face the differences aren't that many after all Maybe if we meet too often we'll end up quarrelling

Thank you to Alf, Flutterby, Klippie, Mel, Pumbaa, Ex, RP, Peter and Sprocky for being so positive, also when it is not the case

On to the last Kruger day!

Just outside the farm on the sand road leading to the main road a couple of squirrels were eating what I think were mangoes. There were lots of mango trees around and I could certainly not pass them without taking a few shots
