The way up to Kranskoop produced some beautifully lit kudus:

God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

On the plateau the critters – at least those visible – we in a much better mood as well. The springboks spend their time testing their strength:

And a Cape Mountain zebra decided we had had to endure enough trials over our stay and willingly looked at me and my camera:

But alas, we weren’t meant to leave the park in a sunny mood. Further down on the link towards Ubejane and out of the gate we could see that the sun wasn’t meant to last. The valley was still covered in thick mist which made taking photos a hoot.
I did make out a white-necked (tick!) raven though. There was also a jackal buzzard and a gabar goshawk trying to warm up on some tree tops.
All the antelopes were out and about as well, but once again far off and this time even more camouflaged by the weather conditions… We left the park with a hartebeest being our last sighting. Off to the Karoo it was!

Re: Mountain Zebra - Some Photos
if i may i would like to just add some photos of the picnic sites in the park
each picnic site has a gate that one has to open
by pushing a button on the control plate
this seems to be the general policy at both sites.
the shady sites..
the rock pool at the one site.
and the swimming pool at the other site.
the future is not what it used to be
