One morning I let myself out of Tsendze Gate at 06h00 as usual and was going straight to the S50 via S49 to Shawu Windmill 3 where I got early lions 3 mornings in a row before this morning. However upon arriving at Mooiplaas Waterhole I found these 2 male Cheetah >> bellies full of Impala right at the corner road map Monument. They looked so beautiful in pre sunrise light. I stayed for 10 mins with no other people arriving. That night the whole of Tsendze were talking about 2 x far off Cheetah at Mooiplaas at mid morning. Guess I was lucky as they were right next to me and I took this image with a 135 mm lens Full Frame , no crop . Give the Cheetah a click .. The light was superb

If you camp at Punda Maria the Crested Guinea Fowl Flock visit twice a day >> something that does NOT happen at Satara or Lower Sabie

I always love going to Crook's Corner despite the Flood devastation to places like the Fever Tree Forest. These Palm trees with Mozambique just behind them are literally the only place in Kruger to see Lemon Breasted Canary in Kruger Park . We were lucky to see a flock of them decending to the ground 100 metres away with our binos .. Far too far to take with my Short 70-200 lens (My longest lens ).. Beautiful place..Click required for the Flat Profile I shoot in.

I always get back to camp at about 08h30 after early morning photography. Have a quick cereal breakfast and then out for the morning with Jane. However one morning I arrived back and there was this awesome never seen before Breakfast of 2 x freshly made Pancakes Fried Banana , Bacon Bits, Honey and Home made at home double thick Bulgarian style Yoghurt..Jane loves her home and bush Kitchens and you cant find this item on any Hilton Hotel Menu. Spoilt rotten I am

A few years back I encountered 2 male lions sitting on the right hand side facing the gate as in this pic at Tsendze gate. So gate opening was problematic until they moved off

This trip we had animals like the Tssessebe..blocking my way..My Favorite camp by far (Needs a Click)
