Now we even had a bit time for a longer break at Girivana where the minute we stopped there a family of ground hornbills arrived and luckily also these birds were extreme close
and as always at least one of them was extreme busy in collecting something
must have been the same group we already met yesterday there.
On our way back to camp we stopped for a juvenile bateleur who far too soon took off,
European bee eaters
as well as another elephant bull.
Back in camp we detected with regard of horror huge puddles and also our braai could not be used as the area was flooded obviously it came down in that area but we never noticed a single rain drop during our drive.
Luckily the sun was shining and the water slowly and stolidly flow off so that until the evening the puddle was gone but as we wanted today anyway pay another visit at the restaurant we did not care about the flooded braai area. We spend an extensive break in camp whilst watching the come and go of the many birdies around such as our beloved woodhoopoes
out of which this one was demonstrating the magot same caught proudly.
We also discovered a spotted flycatcher,
lots of flowers
stopped again at the bats in the tree in front of the reception complex
had another delicious lunch in the Cattle Baron restaurant, even bought our meat from the butcher and paid a final visit at the shop before we strolled back to our bungalow and during that walk we even captured another blue waxbill.
