Great shot of the handsome guy on your way to Transport Dam and as I'm a sucker for sunsets that will be my favourite here

We did have a number of good sightings for such a quick trip but did clock up some miles as well

The clear water survace was broken and a large mass appeared close to the Impalas .
A croc was warming up on the bank of the dam .
The sun glinting off the water of the dam was very mesmerizing .
The Impalas were still coming down in groups .
On the far bank another Hyena arrived and went behind a rock for a while
A new bakkie arrived and parked next to us .After a short while there was a metallic banging next to us .We wondered what could possibly be wrong with their bakkie to make such funny noises . Looking around I located the problem and it was actually on our vehicle it was a Hornbill banging on the chrome running bars on our car
While I was watching there was a sudden flutter and another pushy bird appeared on the car .
After a while the hidden Hyena reappeared and walked all the way around the dam and past the car park .
We decided to take our leave and carry on towards Afsaal ...

Interaction with the birds
Not a bad place to sit for a while. Normally there are lots of waterbirds too, but then I have only been there in summer
