Lovely action pictures of the kingfisher
A bateleur which was half hidden
The giant kingfisher was another first 
Only one more day left from Kruger....

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....

Yes indeed a kingfisher day, Lis! 
It was lovely, thank you, and sorry about the leopard...

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

Pity you missed the leopards!

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
