Harpoor was where we saw them and Domkrag was where they were reported to us but we never saw them.
Stunning eland shot!!!
And also of the bokmakierie and the longclaw. Quite a funny pic the way it looks. Grumpy indeed.

Re: Addo Outings
I took a day trip in to the park yesterday - it's been a while since I went there by myself which is always more relaxing
The start of the day was really quiet and I was fully expecting to see some caracal around. So much so that I took Mbotyi and Vukani loops as the dense bush areas can be a good place to spot them. Unfortunately there weren't any cats to be seen, but it was good to see a couple of Addo's shy animals...
Travelling along Ngulube there were a couple of jackal trotting along
Further along the loop some movement caught my eye on a distant hillside... a quick check with binoculars confirmed it was Josie and her cubs
They were a very long way off - about 800m - so it wasn't the best sighting for photos, but still great to watch the little ones playing. They are all looking extremely healthy, and Josie's recent facial cuts from a warthog appear to be healing up nicely

Re: Addo Outings
Brilliant pics, PJL....maybe it's the HD talking!
The animals are definitely more shaggy and dark there, compared to ours? I know I've said this before!
