@ Liz, yes I was very happy with the BEF and Courser O/\

@ Flutts, I would like to stay to protect... but it seems it was better to let them a little bit of space \O

@ RP, normally early in the morning (before 7-8 AM), Storks... with water coming from the sky O-/

@ Pumbaa, there is so many birds in the Kgalagadi and like you I appreciate Baties and Lions, so many Lions ;-)

:ty: all

At Grootkolk, as always, it's the parade of the birds in the bowls of water.
There are several pairs of Shaft-tailed Whydahs, for my greatest pleasure O/\ O/\ O/\

Great pictures of all those birds. Love the fox cubs too \O \O

Looking at the lions.... they are really different then the lions we saw in northern kruger , color and hair are really different. Funny to see because I almost never paid attention to that before.

You really love this Kgalagadi , we have never been there so far. Looks great
