Africa Wild

Hello all you fantastic people. I am off to join my mom at her timeshare at Kruger Park Lodge in September, as my dad sadly succumbed to this damn CoViD, and will definitely be swiping my Wild Card daily, but I've also booked 2 nights at Talamati to treat her to one of Krugers finest establishments ...

After a really satisfactory breakfast, Elina took some time to show me the African Barred Owlet she had seen that that morning https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/GuH2unf6bfz9POFX340MHvL3ph_hEo2mg3YR_6uPRGDYIAD2IyJdRQqZntqRNkYwsDRXtowwNNw_fu-ZN8Qfeac ...

For the first morning drive of the trip, I was naturally wowed by everything,. We saw a few cool things This Sharpe's Grysbok relaxing under the trees. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/J2eajEZZ36TGSgXzIY6Pn7_E7IkruZtR738zDYtaHY2paSqlPx2Z1ejkU40sb6FQpXO9kUAUGBk ...

My apologies, I forgot to share the first animals we saw on the trip. These beautiful Ellies on the H9, shortly after we came in. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/cs7EZW1rTZ0BIxy6trMeCQ_CUYeyCsjMWr7fF1JtKusb-u5pmAyHUnm25t9ODjVk84nGAioab-ohqVzOJojyioDQOq7VFhw ...

Nice to see Joshua is doing well..we always stay in 14 in Sept visits and we ofen found him in our Bush Camper ..once on our bed after we arrived back from a walk Sounds amazing. My boys would have loved that. On our last visit, they would follow him around with Rodgerh on his rounds, fee him and ...

The morning drive was an early affair. As in past experience, it's scorching by 7ish up north. As the camp was empty, I was easily the first out of the gate. It's was only me and the two boys as per usual on the early morning drives. What was the saying.. only mad dogs and Englishmen and a nature ...

Good to see the boy enjoy a Savanna, train them young!

Absolutely. Although as you can see, I do only allow them a Savanna light

I forgot to mention in the last post that on one of our visits to Mooiplaas, my wife took a step off the deck to peek around the trees to see the hippos and managed to disturb this Yellow-Bellied Sand Snake. As chivalrous as I am, I went straight for the camera instead of her rescue ;) https://lh3 ...

There was a lot of water around, which did make game spotting that more difficult, however the Tsendze river was full and still flowing. This made sundowners at Mooiplaas even more entertaining as the hippos were right around the corner chuffing and grunting, keeping us entertained until our mad ...

We need to talk about the Cicada's though. What is your formula for keeping them away? You obviously need light, but they seem to want to more than you. It was incessant. Some people say you need to invest in a red light. Is this the formula? If you go in Summer to the bush especially you have to ...
