Lovely pic of Mestel Dam

Spot the animal!

[Pumbaa]

Love the Zebra and steenbokkie shots, Richtprins

The table is indeed positioned a bit strange as I (or better to say smaller people) would not reach the cupboard at all with the table in the way

[Richprins]

A nice sighting on the way back to camp on the S-3!

We had quite a bizarre cold evening...I had at LAST found proper yellow sosaties in Nelspruit!


But the braai wood was utterly atrocious, and there were no braai tongs amongst the utensils.

There was a giant spoon though!

So I made fire 10 times using the spoon, and eventually got the sosaties half done...completed in microwave...



At least I made friends next door, a lawyer from the Cape! (Momprins was NOT coming out into the cold!)


She was not coming out the next morning early either...so another solo trip for me!

Shabeni:

With kudu backlighting!

On the loop behind Manung koppie I found an Auslander who told me that there was something nice around the corner, I must just look for where all the cars had left tracks!


(The nice thing about these loops is that there are very few traffic jams...in fact few tourists, as they either hate the area or are too afraid to get lost there! )

[Richprins]

This little one was running around...little did I know this would be the beginning of a month of visits by me to this den!

The long-suffering Momhyena was resting while the little Prinshyena was busy!

Further down the Faai loop some nice light:

And one of the stumps that were still burning after fires a week or so before...this is quite normal.

Lovely Shabeni pic

Nice hyena sighting

How cold was it?

[Richprins]

Maybe 13 degrees max on one day!

[Lisbeth]

Rather cold if you are not dressed for it

[Mel]

Awwww, little prinshyenas are just cute

13°C max temp? Did you have to clear your car windows from frost in the morning then
