we realized a movement on a tree stump nearly on the ground and after we came closer same revealed as Wahlberg eagle although indeed and unusual place to spot an eagle.





As either the river or a lot of remaining puddles in the veld were still carrying a lot of water we met some lovers of the many water such as warthogs,



zebras



as well as more elephants in the riverbed



and this herd was containing once again out of a lot of smaller ones





and they came indeed closer







with a lot of cuties and somehow more and more appeared

[Pumbaa]

and even extreme close.



We stopped on the causeway S118/S114 and the second we stopped nearly all terrapins in the water



hurried to our car and we had indeed difficulties not to overrun them.



We carried on and met kudus and impalas en masse



and a lighter eagle





and more impalas were taking a rest in the green and high grass.



For sure we had a great time in watching either the active or the resting ones



with the obligatory oxpeckers or without in company or alone



to be continued.......
